Re: Using 'common' objects across multiple cards
Thank you.
I understand the way to do it generally speaking, but when using the ide, i cannot see what you mean : After having clicked on "Edit Group" only the group stay visible, but the button to add to the group is no more here ! so i cannot "Drag a button to the group and edit it if you want" !

Re: Using 'common' objects across multiple cards
@dunbarx i've understood that there is <> 'methods to achieve the goal. You made it clear how to react in front of one situation or another ( say emergency vs pre-planing ) Thank you. Now, during practice, i probably made errors. @jacque You can click the Layer header label to see how the controls a...

Re: Using 'common' objects across multiple cards
@richmond62 When i use your suggestion, and observe objects with RevApplicationOverview ( Kudos ), i can see now that on the first card of the stack, i have what can be taken for duplicates fields and groups.

Re: Using 'common' objects across multiple cards
Check the "sharedtext" property to share the same content across cards... Works fine ! Great ! if you create a group on the first card in a new stack, and set its backGroundBehavior, then whenever you then create a new card, that group will automatically be copied as well. Delicious ! Awesome !

Using 'common' objects across multiple cards
Hey there ! I begin to use same controls on multiple cards. It works fine with buttons. 1°) - However, the project browser is looking different as usual ( attached ) I can understand that the controls are repeated on each card, but on CARTOP, as you can see, there are blank lines... If it is the usu...

Re: Autocompletion
Thank you.
I was wondering for variable autocompletion, if possible across handlers, and anywhere in the same script.
And also command and function names.
Thank you jacque, i noticed the very handy 'pairing' of brackets and etc and control structures.
Not worth the price, so.

Re: Autocompletion
Hello !
Sorry for keeping you waiting because i thought i was Email notified, and was not.
If it is a source of trouble, i will double check, but about identifiers i meant variable names yes, and command and function names.
IMHO, this is were it becomes really handy.

Autocompletion
Hey there, vibrant and helpful community
I am thinking about buying community +
I have a question about Autocompletion :
Does it show you the identifiers you declared/used above or before in the stack ?
If i remember well, visual studio code did it.
