Declaring variables and external functions
The default layout in the Application, Window, and User Object
painters includes a Script view set up to declare variables. Keeping a
separate Script view open makes it easy to declare any variables or
external functions you need to use in your code without closing and
compiling the script.
To declare variables and external functions:
-
Select [Declare] from the first list in the Script
view. -
Select the variable type (instance, shared, or global) or the
function type (local or global) from the second list. -
Type the declaration in the Script view.
For more information about declaring variables, see the section called “Declaring variables” in PowerScript Reference. For more information about
declaring and using external functions, see the section called “Declaring external
functions” in PowerScript Reference and the section called “Declaring external functions” in Application Techniques.
