SchemeChecker will also report any resources it believes to be superfluous and just wasting space in your scheme. Although the list of resources which SchemeChecker relies on is constantly updated to include the latest Kaleidoscope resources, some resources which really are used may be reported as "not needed".

This part of SchemeChecker's reports is only meant to be used as a advisory list, and does not give a definite answer as to whether a resource can be included in your scheme(s). If you think a resource reported by SchemeChecker may actually be used somewhere, by all means, leave it in your scheme. You should also check the IDs of the resources reported, as you may have entered the wrong IDs, causing SchemeChecker not to recognize the resources.

SchemeChecker supports schemes based on both the Kaleidoscope 1.5 and 2.x resource set, in addition to schemes using the BeBox WDEF. It also gives reasonable reports for schemes based on other custom WDEFs.

If some of the resources reported as "not needed" by SchemeChecker are actually used, please send an email to the author at <mailto:[e-mail]> and let me know the resource types and IDs you believe should be added to SchemeChecker's resource lists. If possible, include a screen shot, showing where the resources are being used.

Important note about PICT resources: PICT resources used in a scheme’s about box must have an ID in the range -14320 through -14304 to avoid conflicting with other applications. SchemeChecker will report all PICT resources outside this range as “not needed”. Not even ID -14301, which is used in many schemes, is safe to use. Please make sure you renumber the PICT resources to have an ID within the safe range before releasing a scheme.
