Included in this Read Me is information regarding the script files that are supplied with the program: Startup, Sounds, Zoom, Audit, Hide, Total, Print, Picture. These files may be used for the extra functionality they provide or as examples as to how to write your own scripts.
If you have a script named “Startup” in your “Resolve Scripts” folder it is automatically run when the program launches. When this particular Startup file is run, it searches for specific scripts at the launch path or in the Resolve Scripts folder and, if found, installs them into a “Utilities” menu. Startup assumes that utility scripts are in Resolve Scripts folder or at launch path (the folder in which the Resolve application is located).
You can add your own scripts to the Utilities menu by following the conventions documented in any of the scripts listed below. Specifically, each script should
• Set the variable Startup:failed to FALSE().
• Add a menu item to the menu Startup:utilMenu which makes a call to a function in the utility script.
• Add a call to load the script in Startup using CALL loadScript("<script name>").
Read the comments in the Startup script for more details on this procedure.
The “Hide” script collapses entire rows or columns and places a button for expanding and collapsing the row or column. This makes creating a summary sheet easy.
“Audit” checks for and "circles" Errors, References to Blank Cells, Unreferenced Cells, Locked Cells, and Circular References for more accurate worksheets.
“Picture” allows you to open any PICT file and place it into your worksheet.
“Print” provides the convenience of printing any selected range of cells without having to select Page Layout.
“Sound” creates a button and allows you to record a sound to attach to it. This requires System 6.0.7 or 7.0.
“Total” automatically totals the columns and/or rows of a selected range of cells. It creates a "total" row and/or column. Note: If the the right column or bottom row are blank, then Total will only sum into those cells. If the cells designated for totaling are not empty, then Total will alert the user that it can not delete existing data.
“Zoom” will resize a worksheet window to any of four different sizes. If you are
developing a custom template and want to see how it will appear on a user’s machine with a different monitor, you can quickly make changes.
