Hi John,
I am on your side with this.
Especially the need to use INVOKE ACTION to set specific attributes is
something I don't understand.
Our users want to be able to set some defaults for the Write Pro area, for
example the default zoom % and the default view mode
Now I have to use for example INVOKE
ACTION("pageMode?value=draft";WP_WriteProArea) and INVOKE
ACTION("zoom?value=150%";WP_WriteProArea) to accomplish this.
Even further, the Write Pro area needs to have the focus or else the invoke
action command doesn't work
I know there are some workarounds / hacks for this, but I don't like it.
Gr,
Piotr

There is a way to do set ordination programmatically...
INVOKE ACTION("pageOrientation?value=landscape";WP_WriteProArea)
Does anyone else find finding how to do something in 4D Write Pro a painful
proposition. Everything is spread out...
WP commands
ST Commands
OB Commands
Standard Actions/4D Write Pro Standard Actions/Invoke Action
etc., etc...
I would love a single place to go where I can find what is needed without
having to guess what section of the LRM to go to?
John
