User Input data type "Text"
Hi, at the moment, Uer Inputs can support variables of type Single/Double precision, Integer, Byte. In your future upgrades can it also support vaiables of type "Text". Now, I know one can use Global Variables which already supports "Text", but it becomes a pain when copying dewesoft setup files across multiple Test PCs as the Global variables are stored within the Dewesoft "environment" in that PC and cannot be moved with the Setup. What I am after is a method of copying variables of type "Text" across multiple PCs with the setup rather than using the existing Global vaiables export->import feature. User Inputs appears to be the most sensible place to accomodate such a variable as they are stored within the setup. Please let me know if this already achievable through some other way. Thanks

Hi. If I understand you correctly, you are already familiar with functions Import/Export files in Global variables window, and you want another way how to import global variables to the new PC with the setup. In the new version of DewesoftX 2022.1 this will be possible by right click on the setup name and then select option "Import project and load" (shown in the attached image). This will automatically add global variables that were defined in the chosen setup.

Thanks for the reply. My question is I DO NOT like importing Global Variables in every other PC. I wish to create a variable of type "Text" within the Dewesoft setup. So when I use the same setup on another PC, the variable is already present. So I dont need to worry about importing it. The "User Inputs" appear to be the most sensible place to accomodate such a variable as they are stored within the setup. But at the moment, they only seem to support variables of type Single/Double precision, Integer, Byte.
