Finally found some large reviews of Helm after about two weeks of searching
the loft <g>. And yes it looks very good and has a few things I'm really
looking for. The reviews were of version 1.35. Is this the latest or is there a
newer one. If so which, also at what price is Helm direct from you in $
(dollars) for UK shipment?
Another point is to do with page (book?? screen??) changing. Would I be right
to say Helm includes fades (image processing effects) between screens? Does
this happen as the second image is been compiled for display or does the user
still have to watch the page building on screen etc?
What is the "Chart" objects purpose.
I'll re-read the reviews to see if there are other points I'd like explaining
further.
Onto another idea that I'm looking into. I'm looking to include a function for
the user to draw a polygon and from this to calculate an area figure for the
polygon, based on pre-defined measurments, maybe for each pixel. Although I
haven't started coding for this, what features does Helm have that might help
in this matter.
Thanks for all the help Jerrell, all these "form", "page", "book" terms are a
little confusing as I can't relate them to anything yet, but at least I can get
some idea by asking about what I need.
