Fred -

 

If you'll pardon a "beginner's" comments,  It really doesn't matter where Brian or Allan want to go only that they can go where ever they want.  To do that they (and I) need to be able to find and understand the existing tools.  To use the "Tooltips" example, I would not have been able to find the information given by TJ and would still be wondering why the check box didn't work (and still am).  This has been a problem since the beginning of AB but the program itself changes so fast that by the time a manual is written, it is outdated.  Don't know what the answer is, hope you do.  Guess it is time for some creative thought.

 

regards,

lou howard

Brian / Allan,

 

While I?m not particularly fond of answering questions with questions the reality is that in order for anyone to answer questions like the very general one you posted they?d need to know where it is you are trying to go ?

 

If you?ve read Howard?s book and that isn?t in the direction you want to go i.e. system design and testing then what direction do you want to go in ?

 

Are you a visual type i.e. are you only interested in indicators and line drawing capabilities etc ? or ?

 

Fred

Brian,
Thank you for simply cutting to the chase.Until the AFL issue is
adequately addressed,a large percentage of us wil be caught in an
enedless data loop.

Allan

"What I am saying is that I think we are making it harder by not
admitting that it is a programmers program and just getting on with
teaching AFL.

I came to realise it is all about programming -
specifically AFL.

So, if I do want to get on with it where do I go"
