In the LinkedIn group "HALCON Machine Vision Software Professionals", Vladimir Perkovic had the idea to open HDevelop examples directly from the procedure description. We have improved the initial idea.
- Open the procedure for which you want to be able to open accompaniging .hdev files from its help
- Go to menu entry Procedures / Edit Interface / General Documentation / Suggestions
- Enter the following string in the field 'Predecessors':
javascript:debugger;var x={html:1};window.open( "file:///C:/projects/calibration.hdev" );x
Modify C:/projects/calibration.hdev
as needed.
- Close the Edit Interface dialog
- At a position in your script where the procedure is called press F1. The online help for the procedure will be opened.
- Click on the JavaScript link. Another instance of HDevelop with loaded C:\projects\calibration.hdev will be opened.
- If you need a 2nd link, I recommend to enter the above
javascript:...
string into the field 'Successors' or 'Alternatives' or 'See Also'. If that is still not enough, you can enter multiplejavascript:...
commands in one field, separated by a,
, but these links will then all appear in one line. That's probably a bit confusing then.
