Active X -- Great for windoze folks, useless for Mac and Unix... Wouldn't this be against the 'cross platform concept" of Rev?
And isn't there some kind of dll or xcmd support for PCs in Rev already?
Chipp, Tuviah, Kevin,
It is simply impossible to extend the engine with all functions... When having Active-X support, we have access to so much more... COM, DLL's VB API's a lot of Java-applets etc... The biggest problem (and I really loooooooooovvvvveeeeeeeeee working with RR) is using external commands & methods... We can't take advantage of all the work those very clever C++ or Java developers did, with Active-X support we can. No, I don't agree that it's not worth the coding, it will give us scanning-capabilities, image-rendering capabilities, custom encription, inter-application-communication, OCR, all usable from within RR projects... WE NEED THIS!!! Now I have to do those things in Visual Basic, compile them as executables, (collect a thousand VB DLLs etc) and run these small exe files through the commandline. Exchange of info between these programs and RR go via text-files and it works, but it is sooooo tricky to do this...
Please gang, give us the Active X support, it would solve a whole lot of trouble...
