    Job Editor Window

    Job Editor Window is the main part of RockTomate: this is where most time is spent editing Job and running Jobs.

    When instantiated, the window gets auto-docked next to Game or Scene windows if they're present.

    Toolbar

    At the top, the window displays a relative path to a Job which is currently being edited.

    Steps

    Opens Step Browser Window.

    Variables

    Opens Variable Manager Window.

    Logs

    Opens Job Session Logs Window.

    Expand/Collapse All

    Expands/Collapses all steps that have child steps.

    Play

    Begins the execution of a currently edited Job.

    Stop

    Interrupts the execution of a currently executing Job.

    Note that sometimes the operation may not be possible depending on the nature of the Job. For example, when building a project, a progress bar appears which blocks input on background UI including RockTomate's Job Editor Window. There is now workaround for this.

    Managing Steps

    Editor lists all Steps in a tree-view fashion. Steps that accept children are nested within one another.

    Deleting Step

    After selecting a desired Step.

    Menu item: "Delete"
    Shortcut: Delete key

    Re-order Step

    After selecting a desired Step.

    Menu item: "Move Up" or "Move Down" Shortcut: Shift + ↑ or Shift + ↓

    Also can be reordered by simply dragging them around.

    Duplicate Step

    After selecting a desired Step.

    Menu item: "Duplicate"
    Shortcut: Shift + D

    Enable/Disable Step

    After selecting a desired Step.

    Shortcut: F2
    Or can be disabled by toggling checkbox in a "Enabled" column.

    Behaviour

    Runtime

    The window turns orange to indicate that the Job started running. You can't edit or select anything.

    A currently executed step will be automatically selected and followed if it's outside the visibility area.
