Hello @all
the last days i was working on a script for color-conversions using
the float-plugin. I found it very helpful to have a powerpro-hotkey
(ALT+WIN+W), which copied the marked text (a variable) in my editor
(PSPad) and created and put a win.debug-statement into the clipboard
like:
win.debug("variablename",variablename)
So i could easily insert such statements into my script for debugging-
purposes.
Of course PowerPro is the famous tool, which allows to do all this
with bars and menus and hotkeys and scripts and alarms and notes and
context-menus and macros and events and ..... and there are a lot of
very helpful plugins extending all those features. I think Bruce can
be very proud of Powerpro. And the community can even improve
powerpro with plugins and scripts and (that's my topic) with "tipps &
tricks".
I guess that more or less every powerpro-user uses such "private" but
nevertheless valuable and helpful small tricks (and scripts) via
powerpro in his daily live. As PowerPro is free for everybody, i
thought it would be a good idea, if powerpro-users, would also share
their powerpro-tipps & tricks.
I know, that such threads are not the best way of collecting such
information, and i also know, that in most cases only a few people
are interested in sharing such information. But as a german proverb
says "The hope dies at last", which might be similar to "Hope springs
eternal".
OK, here are some of my private tipps&tricks
(HoteKeys only, don't want to break a secret at the very beginning ):
---------------------------------------------------------------------
HotKey: WIN+7: (german keyboard!)
==> copy marked text / convert slash to backslash / paste
HotKey: WIN+ß: (german keyboard!)
==> copy marked text / convert backslash to slash / paste
HotKey: ALT+CTRL+END:
==> copy marked text to clipboard and display length in messagebox
HotKey: ALT+WIN+1:
==> execute powerpro-testscript-01 - very good for testing small units
HotKey: ALT+WIN+2:
==> execute powerpro-testscript-02 - very good for testing small units
HotKey: ALT+WIN+3:
==> execute powerpro-testscript-03 - very good for testing small units
HotKey: ALT+WIN+4:
==> execute powerpro-testscript-04 - very good for testing small units
HotKey: ALT+WIN+M:
==> *configure NewReminderMessage
HotKey: CTRL+^
==> start and stop crosshair-script (posted here in the forum)
HotKey: CTRL+C
==> start CodeAccelerator by Sheri Pierce
Best regards Detlef
