some hidden (?) Rave-features....

in the other post I said, that I'll publish a "Rave-Book" in the next few weeks on lulu.com....
I finish at the moment the german version (I think more then 250 pages!) and get on the EKON11 some feedbacks and some interesting questions about Rave.

Here is one, that every Rave-developer should know:

Rave-Icons

Have you ever noticed the differences on the icons in the RAVE-IDE ?

dark background -> this is a visual component
green background -> in-visual component, will not print
red point -> dataview-connection

of course, there are some inconsequent things, e.g. the bmp-component is only available without the red-dot, but works for both things....

all the green-background-components will triggered on the order in the project-tree, very important, especially when you work with report calculation....

I'll insert here in the next weeks some other features / informations about Rave....

The next feature is the intuitive use of DataFields.


stay tuned...
