AppBrowser

The AppBrowser is a tool that helps users to develop their applications by informing a logical expression, a Link, or a value for the property currently manipulated, according to the selected object. Thus, users can minimize errors during the development of an application.

AppBrowser

The left panel displays Elipse E3 objects that can be used to compose the text that is the result of using AppBrowser. According to its usage context, some objects cannot be used and are not even displayed here.

The center panel shows selected object's methods and properties, and on the right panel there is a help text for the selected property or method.

The panel at the bottom displays the resulting text from AppBrowser, next to the Paste and Cancel options. Click Paste to accept the result and copy this value to the desired area or click Cancel to ignore it.

 

NOTES

When selecting Tags, the AppBrowser is always opened on the last position, not on the position pointed by the current link.

The AppBrowser has an Auto Complete function, that is, type the name of an object to select it automatically.

If an object on the left panel is inactive, double-click it or press the space bar on the keyboard to activate it.

 

The AppBrowser can be used via scripts, via Links, or via some object's properties with the name of another object as their value. Each one of these forms is discussed on the next topics.
