Hi Karen,
The biggest problem that I find is knowing what to look for in the
online
references. For example, I tend to think of the commands in
"REALbasic"
terms, so to split a string I would be thinking of "Left", "Right",
"Mid"
and "InStr" commands.
If you use those commands a lot, you're going to LOVE Revolution's
string handling abilities :-)
I'm still trying to figure out things such as alternate coloured lines
in a
list
That's a tricky one, but there was a example posted a while ago. I
worked out a variation on it, which I will post in a separate email for
better searchability.
The best advert for Revolution at the moment is the user list - I've
never
met such a helpful and friendly group of people so willing to answer
questions. But, to me, Revolution badly needs a good tutorial
(something
along the lines of the one offered for REALbasic would be a good
start) that
goes a little further into the details than the video tutorials -
helpful as
they are. It could also do with help on using the development
environment
(I've probably missed this and will be embarrassed when it is pointed
out!).
I used RealBasic several years ago, but not lately. What does their
tutorial do? Maybe we could put a similar thing together for Rev.
Cheers,
Sarah
