Re: Downloaded 4D app: structure file in read only mode
Do you have the data files open on another Machine? I will get that message if I am trying to open while the data files are already open on another machine.

Re: Downloaded 4D app: structure file in read only mode
HI All, After successfully building and packaging a signed app (verified),opening the package installed in in High Sierra. When I launch it, a confirm Dialog asking "Are you sure you want to open the structure file in red only mode." Yes, opens it and it seems fine. The structure file is compiled so read only mode seems appropriate. Why the Confirm?

Re: v17 PDF-Manuals
Perhaps a useful addition to the HTML docs would be a comprehensive index that can be quickly searched. Yes, you can search the entire docs, but it can take quite a while. If all the text was already indexed that would be much more useful.

Re: v17 PDF-Manuals
The original very large box of paper manuals with my first version of 4D (likely v3), having moved up first from Filemaker and then 4D light/first? was the way I got to grips with 4D. The quality of the documentation for new adopters and so the continuation of the platform should not be under-estimated. For me HTML works well when you vaguely know what you are doing and need a quick check, but high quality PDFs would be great (like those for v6.5 for instance).

Every time 4D managed to provide a PDF-manual I open it up in Acrobat (Not the reader!!) and index it by using steps provided by David Adams (greetings to the South Coast :-) ). If you like I can send you the Language Prefs for v16 for evaluation.

Re: v17 PDF-Manuals
My bias towards pdf is possibly because I'm not the primary coder of our product. Therefore quite often if I am writing code I need to check the documentation and read the information to make sure understood it correctly. For example if I was looking to use the command distinct values. In the V 11 documentation PDF you could go to the table of contents and look up the command and the page number. In the new version you cannot do this there is no list of commands in the current pdf docs. The new versions of the documentation be HTML or PDF are simply not as good as the old ones. The fonts are poor particularly if you are longsighted like me. Navigating the HTML versions is not as good as PDF. The main reason is as you navigate through the hierarchical list you lose the ability to expand and collapse the bookmarks. Therefore you are continually having to go back through the hierarchy to read another command. With the PDF version the bookmarks are way better than anything in HTML. This improves the readability. It is such a simple issue to generate the PDF documentation with decent fonts I am perplexed as to why this is not been done.
