Title: List of "Intelligent" or System Labels.
Post by: ger21 on January 17, 2010, 01:12:10 PM

Is there a list of these somewhere. The Mach2 customization guide lists 4:

File
Error
Mode
Profile

Today, I discovered COSYS.

Are there more?

Gerry, do you have Mach Mad? I can't remember for sure but think it had a drop down with all the current ones listed.

Hi,
Here is the info I've managed to gather from various places:
Note that the labels are case sensitive.

"MDI"                The MDI line on screens
"COSYS"           I think this stands for COordinate SYStem - it's the G54 label that you see on screens
"TOOLDESC"    This is the text description of the Current Tool
"UNITREVMIN"  
"UserLabel#"     UserLabel for format - the # is the label number - 3 digits I believe Example: UserLabel100
"Error"             This is the label that the VB "message" routine writes to
"RADDIA"  
"Mode"             This is the Mode line that is seen on screens
"Profile"            This is the profile name of teh current profile
"File"      
"Ticker#”          Ticker Label format
"INMM"     
"FRNTREAR"  

"Desc"      (for wizard pick menus )
"Author"   (for wizard pick menus)

1-18-2010: testing seems to tell me that these are labels that are put on the first screen of a wizard.
They provide the info that is in the Desc and author fields of the wizard selection dialog box.
The label contents are: "Desc <desc text>" and "Author <author name text>"
The labels are semi-smart in that they do not display on the Wizard screen - however the cursor
changes when you hover over them so they are present and selectable by the mouse - apparently they just are not painted
by mach as part of the screen rendering process.

I think there are Flash equivalents for most of these - PoppaBear could tell you about that.
