I'm familiar with the button restrictions, but what are these new ones? Do you have a list of all the restrictions and what each one means?

Thanks,
Chris

Here's the list of button restrictions, the names are pretty self explanatory.

MoveBind : don't allow keymoves to this button
ShiftMoveBind : don't allow keymoves to the shifted button
XShiftMoveBind : don't allow keymoves to the x-shifted button
MacroBind : don't allow macros on this button
ShiftMacroBind : don't allow macros on the shifted button
XShiftMacroBind : don't allow macros on the x-shifted button
LearnBind : don't allow learned signal on this buttons
ShiftLearnBind : don't allow learned signals on the shifted button
XShiftLearnBind : don't allow learned signal on the x-shifted button
MacroData : don't allow this button to be used in a macro
ShiftMacroData : don't allow the shifted button to be used in a macro
XShiftMacroData : don't allow the x-shifted button to be used in a macro
TMacroData : don't allow the button to be used in a timed macro
ShiftTMacroData : don't allow the shifted button to be used in a timed macro
XShiftTMacroData : don't allow the x-shifted button to be used in a timed macro
FavData : don't allow the button to tbe used in a favorite
ShiftFavData : don't allow the shifted button to be used in a favorite
XShiftFavData : don't allow the x-shifted button to be used in a favorite

Restrictions can be combined using the + and - operators

The following are some predefined combinations:

AllMoveBind = MoveBind+ShiftMoveBind+XShiftMoveBind
AllMacroBind = MacroBind+ShiftMacroBind+XShiftMacroBind
AllLearnBind = LearnBind+ShiftLearnBind+XShiftLearnBind
AllMacroData = MacroData+ShiftMacroData+XShiftMacroData
AllTMacroData = TMacroData+ShiftTMacroData+XShiftTMacroData
AllFavData = FavData+ShiftFavData+XShiftFavData
Bind = MoveBind+MacroBind+LearnBind
ShiftBind = ShiftMoveBind+ShiftMacroBind+ShiftLearnBind
XShiftBind = XShiftMoveBind+XShiftMacroBind+XShiftLearnBind
Data = MacroData+TMacroData+FavData
ShiftData = ShiftMacroData+ShiftTMacroData+ShiftFavData
XShiftData = XShiftMacroData+XShiftTMacroData+XShiftFavData
AllBind = Bind+ShiftBind+XShiftBind
AllData = Data+ShiftData+XShiftData
Shift = ShiftBind+ShiftData
XShift = XShiftBind+XShiftData
All = AllBind+AllData

Examples:
"Shift+XShift" means restrict all use of the shift and x-shifted states.
"All-MoveBind" means restrict everything except keymoves to the normal state.

Downloaded and put the new RM in it's own new folder. The print and new sheet feature worked GREAT!!!! Even got to navigate to the old (.66) folder, upgrades, reloaded into .67 and printed out the three upgrades I made for my bedroom Mill4. THANKS A BIG BUNCH GREG, again you've come thru making RM a nice program to use. I like how it just includes buttons with functions assigned, just what the doctor ordered.

Thanks,

Jim

You are welcome.

I didn't include the EFC and Hex columns that KM does, 'cause I didn't really see the value for most users. Anyone miss it?

I'll probably make the Output panel the last tab, and keep it that way if I ever add more tabs, unless I hear objections.

On a slightly different topic, I didn't create a Code List panel, 'cause I felt the same thing is available on the Function panel if the user sorts the table by the appropriate column (just click the column header to sort by that column. Shift-click sorts in descending order).

I noticed right away, but didn't see any value of having them anyway, at least not as a guide to help remember where everything is for a while. Wife sure wouldn't know what to make of either of those columns anyway.

Now, it did surprise me that output wasn't the last tab. I agree, it should be.

I agree, but maybe someone else has a different opinion.

Again Greg, thanks for the new features.

Dang, I may have to give my daughter a Mill4 just so I have an excuse to make some more upgrades with RM. :lol:

These are the same as Mark's beta version of IR.

Examples:

"All-MoveBind" means restrict everything except keymoves to the normal state.
Is IR going to use the same restrictions? The latest beta of IR doesn't have some of these combinations like Shift, XShift, and All.

Thanks,
Chris

IR 3.3 Beta 3 has them, as well as the "-" operator. Not sure if it has been made available anywhere.

I'm glad you and Mark are getting things straight. I'd like to see IR 3.3 beta 3 put over in the JP1-KM files area. Also, it looks like we need to remove the [NoBind] section from some of the RDF files in RM packages. I guess that can wait until later.

I found only 1 RDF with the [NoBind] section: "EBX0EBV0 (URC-7560 Extender).rdf", which I have just updated.

I agree on Output being the last tab especially since I was the one to put the original feature change in to move it to the end.

And I am good with the no code panel.
