Hi all,
I was looking at an old API (
http://vsys-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/documents/docs/turbine/
) so I didn't realize there was a setScreenTemplate in RunData. It
works ok now but I have a question-
What is the difference between Screen Template and Screen? What is the
difference between a layout and a layout template?
Thanks,
Mark Glass
