Over the years, Distributed Data Services, Inc. have created several Clarion utilities to enhance the development of their products, including a Clarion source searching app! But are these tools of use to developers in the Clarion community? Should they be made available as third-party products? Charles wants to find out, so today he'll be demonstrating several tools and asking our opinion!
Adding tokens (such as [FirstName] [LastName]) that your end-users can access to your program can be a huge time saver for them, as well as allowing such things as mail and message merge. Andy shows one way to accomplish this!
Introducing Classify.It! Clarion Class Assistant!
JUN 18,2021
Writing classes is one thing, organizing them, commenting them, deriving them, debugging them, and creating them is something else! Those things take time, and the Classify.It! Clarion Class Assistant is here to help! This week, we'll watch Bruce Johnson install and run Classify.It! for the first time ever, with John and Mary there to help him along the way! Why? Because there is no help file yet! This is a first-release Beta, so expect some glitches along the way!

Designing An Interface - Using an embedded HTML control in your app!
APR 09,2021
HTML pages are a great way to display information. They're a great way to format information in an attractive manner with not-too-much work. In Clarion, we can embed HTML controls in our apps and take advantage of HTML's display strengths. You can even make links in your HTML that launches other procedures in your app! So how do you do this? Tune in and find out!
NOTE: I posted the App used in the Demo, you will need Chrome Explorer, Codejock Suite Control Wrapper (and Codejock Controls), StringTheory, and UltimateDebug in order to open it/run it. There is a TXA export of the app here as well, so you can just clip the code out of that if so desired!

Additional Resources:
From Jane Fleming:
I just wanted to suggest two Complete Beginner resources that somebody might find useful. Both are old. But in Clarion, we’re used to old things.
One is a broad overview video I did 11 years ago intended as part of a series that Friedrich never implemented. It was primarily meant to reduce the fear factor of confronting the IDE. There have been some changes in the IDE since then, but it’s mostly still relevant (if one can tolerate my nasal voice). It consists of 3 short 640x480 MP4 videos:

https://www.beachbunnysoftware.com/SBVideo/sbintro1cc/SBIntro2CC.mp4
https://www.beachbunnysoftware.com/SBVideo/sbintro1cc/SBIntro3CC.mp4
The second resource (pic below) is a walk through the SB examples with explanations of the differences between compiler directives, script actions, etc.
This can be downloaded within the SB IDE or from the SB website: https://www.setupbuilder.com/products_setupbuilder_dev_download.htm
