First Steps With VisualNEO Win
Quote from susan on July 26, 2023, 1:01 pmI understand that VisualNEO Win is sort of a "legacy" project that refuses to be replaced by VisualNEO Web and a little while back I got a license which won't help it go away.
I haven't done anything with it so far, but today I got some plugins and am now going to see what it can do for me!
To get myself started, I think I might try to remake my VisualNEO Web Script Examine utility in VisualNEO Win.

I think you will be surprised. Even more if you try any of the modern plugins.
Let us know what you think :)

The Good
Using NeoProDB with a SQLite database worked on my first attempt.
Not So Good
Disappointed that I cannot resize the pop-up windows where scripts are entered for actions.
Surprised that quotations need to put around variable names.Coming from VisualNEO Web, where I usually just put variable names without quotes (and it is smart enough to know what I mean) this feels like a step backwards.

Note that there is a button (upper-right) to edit the scripts in a new much bigger window

Yes, in VisualNEO Win that's necessary.

It's! VisualNEO Win (previosly NeoBook) is an old software. Most people do the opposite path: form Win to Web LOL

Who knows how long it might have taken for me to find? I will now carefully go through all the toolbars and menus to make sure that I don't miss anything else!
