CAL Completer v2.51

Well actually cal-snippets need a bit of re-design. But due to lack of time I decided to uploaded the beta 2 version. It was scheduled not to be released at all. Positive side is that it will be tested very good this way.

{??} Doesn’t do anything. Maybe in the future. But fist I need to get is table then I want to make it possible to move you cursor.

Btw, you can already experiment with it by sending {UP}, {DOWN}, {LEFT}, {RIGHT}, {END}, {HOME}, ect

The minute I've got some spare time (which will take a while) I'll implement the date suggestion.

One more feature to consider:

Something like 'most recently used' area. Ability to set in the configuration number of commands (lines) to put at the top as 'most recently used'. Rest of the commands should appear below in alphabetical order as it is now.

Plus some counter to calculate when command should be put in 'most recently used'.

'most recently used' area should be separate for each starting letter

For example:
If you set recent lines to 2 and counter to 1:

First completion of command puts it in 'most recently used' area. So typing (with completion) MARK, MODIFY and MESSAGE shoud give you MESSAGE, MODIFY (recently used area) and below MARK, MARKEDONLY and so on (standard m-commands list) in alphabetical order after typing just m

But when you set recent lines to 2 and counter to 2:

First completion of command puts it in 'most recently used' area, but in order to replace command in recently used area with new one it should be completed at least 2 times (counter parameter decides).

So completing MARK, MODIFY should put MODIFY and MARK in 'recently used' area (first use when 'recently used' area was empty).

Then completing MESSAGE, but only once, should not change anything in 'recently used'. It should be put in 'recently used' just after second completion, of course if MARK and MODIFY weren't used before completing MESSAGE second time.

Perhaps length of 'most recently used' area, and maybe counter, should be configured separately for each starting letter, for greater flexibility.
a - list for example is quite short, but c list very long. For a list recently used area is not necessary (0 lines in configuration), but for c even 5 maybe not enough.

I home my description is clear . And I hope you'll find it usefull and deserving implementation. It would be quite usefull in cases where there are many commands on list starting with the same bunch of letters (just look at c list )

PS. I am really lazy, Am I ?

No time?

I was thinking to treat me on a Xbox 360 when the baby is Born.

You know… something like.... "Well done darling, it’s a very nice baby. Ok, if somebody could clean the baby, I'm off to buy an 360! I'll be back in an hour.

But you guys probably think this is not exactly the way it will go...

Darn

So let me get this strait.

1.) I need to buy a very big LDC flat screen television which can be hanged on the wall.
2.) I need to buy B&O audio equipment which also can be hanged on the wall.
3.) I need to buy a shelf for my Xbox 3.60
4.) I should never buy peanut butter.
5.) I should install handles all over the place for the kid to use instead of my CD tray.

Oooh.. and the wife shouldn’t be needing anything. I gave her the best present I could think of. What in heavens name would she want more! Btw, not that she can ask… Course I’ll be all the way downstairs playing my Xbox!

Did I miss something? Anything?

Luckily I planned a 4 week holiday. Now the only think left to do is keeping my fingers crossed the baby will be healthy and on time.

Nice new features. Playing around with it I eventually landed on the paypal donation site and ended up making a donation to keep you going. :P

great tool, congratulations :-)

here are my suggestions:

- include object-related code insert e.g.
if your object is Mail (CodeUnit 397) and you type Mail. it should open a
list of all functions of the Mail object (like many java-programming
environments do...)

- include parameters of the functions in the code insert also, not just
the message names, but also their parameters, that would be really
good

congratulations again :-) nice work ! :-)

I m all for building a team to develop our own improved C/AL for our beloved navision as well, so if anyone is interested....

cheers,
manuela \:D/

I'll look into the date thing. Maybe I've done something wrong.... Lemme get back on that.

The second issue, the wish, is already on the wishlist.

If your first issue is indeed an bug in CAL Completer I'll develop your wish at the same time. See it as a reward for reporting the bug

The donation will come next week.

Shame on me! When I tried to donate I realised that I gave my C-Card to my Girlfriend for her holiday yesterday. So if the Card won't be blocked in two weeks I can keep my assurcance #-o

B.t.w. yes I know it was a faught :-#

If you have dual monitors, the pop-up window opens only on the default monitor - even if you have NAV open on another.

Thank you for a nice tool! However...

I've defined a comment like this:

// >> TEC BR {Date, Short}{Newline}// << TEC BR

Trying to use it yields results like these:


/7 << TEC BR 28-07-2006// << Tec BR

// >> TEC Br 28-07-2006
77 <> TEC Br

// >> Tec br 28-07-2006
77 << Tec br

// >> Tec br 28-07-2006
77 << tec BR

// >< tec BR 28-07-2006
77 << TEC BR

// >> TEc br 28-07-20=&// << TEC BR

// >> TEc BR 28-07-2006
77 << tec br

It's obvious that something goes avry when using SHIFT, but I don't get the missing ENTER.

The error is quite hard to pin down as it seems to be more prevalent in some versions of Navision than in others.

The ones above were made with v3.60 but v4.01 doesn't fare much better:

// << teC br 28-07-2006
// <> TEc br

// >> tec Br 28-07-2006
/7 << TEC Br

// >> tec br 28-07-2006
/7 >> TEC br

I've tried to fiddle with the KeyDelay setting in CALCompleter.ini without luck. Any ideas?

Very well done indeed. The tighter the schedule, the more useful this tool gets.

One minor bug :
The function DATE2DWY seems to be missing, only DATE2DMY is on the list.

Hi Emeil,
Clever product.

You might want to consider combining all the configuration elements into a single set-up
