The About the OMNIS 7 to Studio Converter Window displays a list of all Modules in the O$Converter library.
Only object classes that have a prefix of "Module" will be displayed in the list.
Submodules will be placed under their respective parent modules in the tree list. Submodules are object classes that have a prefix of "Submodule". The parent module is determined from the 2nd part of the submodules name. For example the parent of submodule "Submodule_Methods_OpenWind" would be "Module_methods". Any submodule whose parent module cannot be found in the O$Converter library is listed in the tree list under "Orphaned submodules".
For a brief description of the function of each module and submodule see the Post-Conversion Tasks page.
The About window opens automatically when the O$Converter library opens. It will also close automatically after a short time unless you scroll the tree list or maximize the window. The About window can be reopened by selecting "About O$ Converter" from the O$ Converter menu.
Each module and submodule has a checkbox next to it in the tree list. If this is checked then the module is active and will be executed during the conversion. Uncheck modules and submodules will not run.
If a module is selected in the list and the right-mouse button pressed then a context menu will appear. The menu shows:
The help topic file for a module must be named after the module with an extension of ".HTM". For example the help file for "Submodule_Methods_OpenWind" would be named "Submodule_Methods_OpenWind.HTM". The length of file names is limited on the Macintosh to 31 characters (including the file extension). As an aid to developers the module name length is displayed in the context menu. This is particularly an issue for submodule names since they incorporate the names of the parent module.
