Raptor - clever, convenient, customizable!

tRev is a code editor for Revolution. Raptor is a fiendishly clever feature of tRev that lets you strategically edit only those properties of an object that you desire—that you need.

Watch it work (new 3 minute video):

(download)

Now you can quickly build a customized property editor for each or any object with a few keystrokes—and it's built right into tRev's code editor.

Start using it now!

Choose Check for Updates from tRev's Help menu, and you'll see you have a component update. Or you might have noticed the Update Available link in the lower left corner of your editor.

NOTE: You will need to quit and restart after updating as the message broker has been modified.

We just did another update for Raptor this afternoon (2:45PM Mon Aug 31). We have improved the formatting of prop values (no quotes) and can now handle multi-word property names! See below:

tRev has been updated at 8:45AM Mon Aug 31. Error data was erroneously displayed. Do component update & restart.

tRev has been updated again at 10:15AM Mon Aug 31. Raptor now works while tRev is in Decode mode. Component update without a restart.

tRev was updated at 2:45PM Mon Aug 31. Raptor prop values no longer have quotes & multi-word property names now work.

This last update to tRev fixed the problem with the "name" property, btw. In the rev prop inspector, the name property is really the short name. we are now using short name.

very nice! I was not sure I was going to use this, but after trying it out I got to say it pretty helpful

Glad to hear, Obleo. I'm using it a lot, myself.

I just (Wed Sep 2 @ 7PM) updated the Raptor component of tRev to recognize color values. If you click on a color value, the color picker show. Shift-click it and you get a field with the RGB.

I have a quick question if I have trev at the root level for more than one version of rev (eg 3.0 ,3.5, 4.0, etc.) do I have to update each one, or does by updating on copy of trev work for all ?

Component updates will apply to all versions. When tRev the app needs updating, then each copy will need to be replaced.

That last component upgrade requires a restart. Raptor upgrades tend to require mods to the message broker and thus restart of tRev required. Not a total install...just a simple quit and restart of tRev.

thanks for the info:)
