When creating new sceensets it would be nice IF you encluded a very small set of buttons on the main screen to be used as function buttons.

I set up a set of 12 small buttons hardly visable. Then asign a HOTKEY = to ALT&F1-12. That means to use press ALT & say F1. That will gives you 12 functions at the press of the button.

I personally have 24 function keys F1-F24 so with the addition of ALT&F  and Ctrl&F and Ctrl&Alt&F   I have 72 functions available at teh press of a buttonSet

ALSO set the buttons to use VB script. Then program each button to call a macro   Code"M2000"   Use say M2000 - M2012 macros.

Now when the USER needs a function they just create a macro say M1201(for use with alt&F1) and it will call the macro assigned to that button.

This saves the user from having to figure OUT how to use Scream4 and adds function buttons to your screens for extra functions.

You could also go ahead and Create the macroset M2000-2012. Insidethe macro just put include the code:

Message" This Funtion Is Unused, You may add code to M2000 to create a FUNCTION BUTTON"

Now when they press the button the message will appear in the MACH status Message Bar

AND it adds value to your screenset

Hope it helps

Hi BR,

Which screen designer to you recommend?

Thanks

Mach Screen is the best and getting better every update(;-)
