4D View Pro: Get control over your 4D method settings
4D View Pro is getting more feature-rich with every R-release and 4D v17 R6 is no exception! A new command is available which allows you to specify a 4D method’s parameters, name, type, and a summary. Now your methods can be more informative and descriptive, helping end users to use them correctly.
Do you want to declare a date or time? What about giving a short description to help users understand what the method does? It can now be done with VP SET ALLOWED METHODS command!
Customize the style of your 4D View Pro documents
With 4D v17 R6, you can programmatically customize the style of your 4D View Pro documents. There’s three ways to go about it, you can: 1) use the default style commands to define the general style of a sheet, 2) use the stylesheet commands to define frequently used custom styles, and finally 3) use the cell style commands to define the style of specific cells.
Use collections to write and read in 4D View Pro
If you need to read or write hundreds of different values or formulas, you can do it faster, easier, and at the same time by using collections. New commands are available for this: VP SET VALUES, VP Get values, VP SET FORMULAS, and VP Get formulas.
