What's new

ROBIN Studio

• The "Stop" button in the debug panel is enabled again
• Fixed a bug with stopping a robot that is paused. Now the debug panel does not change color until the robot is actually stopped
• Fixed a bug that led to a broken order of messages in the log
• Added file length limit for resources. Files with a file name longer than 60 characters cannot be added to resources
• Fixed a bug that could cause the application to close when copying actions to a script
• Updated installation requirements. Studio installation now requires Net SDK 5.0 rather than Net Runtime 5.0
• Added a "Save results" checkbox to the debug panel. If checked, when debugging is launched, the actions performed will save the results to a database file
• The "Start from here" button has been added to the context menu of the action (when clicking on it with the PCM). If you press it, debugging will be started from the specified action. All previous actions in the scheme will be skipped if possible, and the results of their execution necessary for the correct operation of the robot will be taken from the database file, where they were saved earlier. Some actions cannot be skipped, such as loops within which the launched action is located and actions that create contexts, such as Open Browser
• In the action properties panel, added the ability to toggle between controls by pressing Tab and interact with them using enter or space (selected depending on the element type)
