cycler Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Would it be possible to add a sequence code reference section to the rear of the manual? I am sure that it would be very helpful to programmers like me who only use DaqFactory occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Can you provide a little more detail as to what you mean? Do you mean for all the functions, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycler Posted October 19, 2011 Author Share Posted October 19, 2011 Yes, I am thinking of an alphabetical list of all sequence code, functions etc, possibly with links to a relevant section of the user guide. Occasionally I can remember some of the code to use, but have to search the user guide to find the correct syntax. An example maybe -- component.g1.strText = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzeoTech Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 That's not a bad idea. Maybe in a separate reference guide as there are lots of functions. Question for you: should it be grouped on object or on actual variable. So, for example, the function: system.messageBox() should it be under S with all the other system. functions, or m for messageBox()? Or perhaps under S, but with a link under m?

SteveMyres Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I vote for option 3. Plus, as long as it's a PDF, it's searchable anyway, so the organization becomes less critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycler Posted November 8, 2011 Author Share Posted November 8, 2011 I would agree with Steve on that one, option 3 seems the most logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallardHill Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Provide indices for both orderings with crosslinks between. This provides a very efficient way to jump between 'families' of functions - we're often working with several functions within the same family to code a complete subtask. It also enables the use of our brains' content-addressibility strengths to complement the brute-force Search method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
