Tom,

Mucho gracias for the GLX2 love!

How to get the props of something quickly from within GLX2--without ever leaving it?

Well, if the object of your desire has a Tab assigned to it in the GLX2 Script Editor, you can right-click* on ANY GLX2 Tab and get a menu that lets you do any one the following:

- Edit Props of This Object
- Edit Props of Owner
- Edit Script of Owner
- Show Object in App Browser (this currently just opens the Rev Application Browser)
- Go to Parent Stack

This handy contextual menu works on the active Tab in GLX2 or any non- active tab, AND it does so without activating the Tab upon which you right-click. I use this constantly to edit the script or properties of the Tab object's "owner"--the group,card or stack to which a control, group or card belongs. In this way I avoid repeated trips to the Rev Application Browser.

* right-click = control-click on 1 btn Mac mouse; two fingers on trackpad + click on Mac laptops running OS X Leopard.

Jerry,

Yes I updated and tested in GLX2 the first chance I had. It is very fast. Noticeably faster by far.

One comment about how I use GLX2: It seems I keep switching out of the script edit environment to get to the (rev)property inspector from the norm rev menu and then switch back. I need constant quick access to the rev stack, card, object inspector for my workflow. I am not familiar with the GLX2 preferred method to do this?

That said:

I love the way Web 2.0 sites are available in the script editor.

I love clickable handlers, In fact that was the only way to track down the RR Bug 6019 by using the clickable handler name to find where revSave in revLibrary were misbehaving. Since no one else seemed to have my particular bug Mark was giving me ideas of things to check in the revLibrary and we found a workaround/fix for 6019 which I am very pleased with. My computer froze at least thirty times during the time it took to find that bug.

I love tabs for quick checks and code changes.

I love auto archives. (saved me during the 6019 freezes)

I now love the hover over an item to see what it's name was during writing a script.

Thanks again,

Tom McGrath

Tom,

Not sure if you're a Mac or Windows person, but Safari 3.1 just came out today and GLX2 is using it (on Mac) via RevBrowser's builit-in web browser--and it's FAST. Very nice on Web 2.0 sites, too.

Thanks Sarah,

Of course it was most obvious. I am not proficient with GLX2 yet. I do enjoy a lot of the features though.

What is GLX2 Web Browser Beta?

How do I see it or interact with it???


Make sure you have the latest beta of GLX2 and then open it's window. It isn't necessary to be scripting anything at the time, but you can
be if you want. In the "Go" menu, the last item will be "Open web
browser". Once a browser tab has opened, you can click any of the
links in the list on the left, which include all the help pages for
GLX2. You can also type in your own addresses to go to them directly.
Use the "Go" menu for bookmarks, history etc.

Cheers,
Sarah
