Spreadsheet like views

You've been busy, Mr. Bruggen!  Yep, the feature that you are talking about is what we call "in-cell editing."  Right now, you can call in-cell editing (well, sorta)  in the table and blind spreadsheet view.  Select a channel and press [Select].  You'll now see a change to the command line, and a yellow background to the first parameter of the channel you'd selected.  You can now use your page left, right, up and down keys to navigate through the table view.  When you are finished, just press [Escape], [Live], [Blind], etc (anything that changes modes) to abandon that editing style.

You can't yet just click on a "cell" and go there, however.   It's primarily intended for off-line.  Fully functional in-cell editing will be coming in the near future.

Thanks again!  Keep those cards and letters coming :-)

Hi, Anne...I agree this would be a massive improvement to the spreadsheet view - both for offline and the console. In addition, the ability to drag a region of cells (Hog does this) would be very useful. If I had, say, 10 moving lights with an attribute in a palette that I wanted to remove, it would be super intuitive to simply drag highlight the region, and type in the new value or press @ [Enter].

Is this something under consideration?

It is.  We actually expect to begin work on a variety of editing and navigation improvements in the next 60 days.   

Hope that helps.
