Fellow kids...
Mr. Rossi, despite his twisted sense of humor (now that he's FORTY
it's gotten much worse, btw), has created absolutely rock-solid,
indispensable, cool tools in the way of tmAlign and tmNumeric.
I use tmAlign every day that I work in Rev. I've been using it and
tmNumeric for over a year now. The UI of these tools speak to a part
of your brain that is still hunting buffalo (that's a good thing,
btw). You just USE them. No thinking involved.
Get it. Do it. Become one with it.
You'll be glad you did.

P.S. Ok, so I'm feeling a little frisky this afternoon.

into celebrating diversity, not just living with it.
And Richard Gaskin also chimed in:
Well said. That's one of the beautiful things about Rev's plugin
architecture and that most of its scripts are exposed: the
opportunities for extensibility are boundless.
Well, ok then, how about another slice of diversity?
Today I'm announcing another small plugin for the IDE of your choice:
tm|numeric. This plugin acts as a numerical display and editor for
stack
development, dynamically showing values for stacks and selected
object's
width, height, layer, and x/y position, as well as the object's
name and
number. You can double click any displayed value (except number)
to edit
the value and apply it to the selected object. It's a really fast
way to
edit your controls numerically.
This plugin also introduces a new editing method we're trying out:
scroll-editing. By clicking and holding on a displayed value, one can
increase or decrease the value simply by moving the mouse up and down,
without the need to type in a value.
tm|numeric very simple and very small, which is in keeping with our
philosophy about these types of tools: keep them small and out of
your way.
Yes, size really does matter.
tm|numeric was built to work with the Revolution and MetaCard IDEs, on
Windows and MacOS, as well as with Constellation, the powerful
stack editor
developed by Daniels & Mara, Inc.
<http://www.daniels-mara.com/products/constellation.htm>
We've tried to make this plugin as IDE-compatible as possible -- of
course,
if you run across any issues, please let us know.
tm|numeric is available for US$12 via PayPal (an account is not
required).
Please visit the 'Media' section of our Web site
