Using the new DALLAS search function(s) ( V1.0 ) Atan
Turn On/Off the new features by using this toggle switch:
The Dialog expands and shows more infos and features now:
Now you are able to search for things in your script by mouse click or by entering text.
If there is a match all occurrences will be highlighted. See this simple example:
We entered the word 'taken' inside the edit-box, unchecked 'Exact' and as we pressed 'Find text' Buttons we see that we got one hit.
The scriptline which contains that word is now highlighted.
It's always a pain if DALLAS tells us that one or more script-lines contain an 'Unknown Object' which must be changed.
This example here shows how to find such line(s) very easily:
The script opens automatically and show such line(s).
In new D3Edit versions DALLAS is searching for such errors before saving and highlights them.
While starting DALLAS some new list-boxes are filled. Left clicking onto an entry will search for this word. This word is entered into the search field too. The number of hits is shown, all related scripts are expanded and the searched text will be highlighted. Use the scroll-bar to the right to navigate through all the scripts.
I.E. it's very easy to find Pathnames and Messages now.
To find User Types Workshop entries just open it, select the User Type and hit 'Search for Value'.
If there is no hit in the Scripts now and you are pretty sure about it, you can delete it from the list now.
Be careful, it's easy to make a mistake here and your script may not work!
One more example :
This new search feature is very useful while scripting. Once you are familiar with it, you'll wonder how you got along without it!
Using it in the right way can save you a lot of time during your scripting.
