Editing a Formula

23.08.2021

Before you can edit a formula, you first have to open it. To do this, double-click on the formula in the Object List. A window appears where you can then edit the formula. For the formula code, use the FPScript scripting language.

The window for editing formulas has three views. The formula is edited in FPScript view, and in Data view, the current result of the formula is displayed numerically. In the Data view, the current result of the formula is displayed numerically. The Data view corresponds in its functionality to a read-only record window. In the Presentation view, the result is displayed as a curve and you can use the cursors to take measurements.

The formula editor works like a common input box. Use the following keys to navigate:
