Brilliant Neil, its what we have all been waiting for :D

[Guest Vanbast]

Thanks Neil, this document has cleared a few things up however I think I have found a couple of mistakes which could do with rectifying.

a) Messaging Counts Plug-In

I cannot get the varaible to work. The others work fine, this just comes up with a blank. Is the syntax OK?

:D Color Attributes

The COLOR_HOMETEXT attribute seems to be missing . This does work and is used in the MS schemes provided on the SPV. Also the names and comments get a bit out of sync at the bottom the the color attributes table.

c) Color Attributes

Could you verify that they are all listed as I cannot seem to set the color of the bounding boxes around text input and lists or for shortcuts in PIE.

Thanks

Mark
