RCO-tool – 2.4.8.7000
a new version of the RCO-tool is available for download in the partner portal.
In the new version we have further improved the workflow for program modules with attached menus. Menus are now automatically created when creating variables and do not have to be added to the menu editors via drag & drop.
The text program editor has been reworked with the
“Auto Brackets” function. New brackets can be closed automatically, selected brackets are highlighted and lines are now numbered.
We have summarized all the new features for you in pictures. If you click on the images, you can also view them in full screen.
Workflow changes
Menus are created automatically when variables are created and no longer have to be added to the menu editors via drag & drop. Whether or which menus are to be created can be selected via checkboxes. If a menu is accidentally deleted, it can be created again by replacing the existing program module with the same module.
new Backup Handling
Backups are checked to ensure that they are not smaller than 7kb and therefore destroyed.
If this case occurs, a message is displayed. Then you can either save manually or repeat the backup, for this the RCO tool closes all open windows.
Texteditor new features
The new function “Auto Brackets” automatically adds the closed bracket when using (-brackets and {-brackets. This should help to minimize errors and save time. If you don’t want this function you can disable it in the text editor. If you click on a bracket, the counterpart is highlighted. The lines in the text program are now numbered and faster to find errors and to find their way.
Folder in Makro Programs
For better organization, subfolders can be created for macro programs. Within folders, additional subfolders can also be created. The macro programs can be moved within the folders via drag & drop.
