Please implement dark mode in Diadem. 

All my other softwares are setted up to dark mode, when I exchange to Diadem is like going out of a dark tunnel in sunny days.

Loading multiple channels into their group names from NAVIGATOR Search Results

Status: New Submitted by Member on 07-21-2021 10:23 AM 1 Comment

When I am loading multiple same-named channels into the Data Portal from a DataFinder Search Results list (after 'searching for channels'), if I load these channels into the data portal, by default they all load into the 'default' group, and because they have the same name, they are re-named inside the Data Portal with suffix numbers.

 

I think it would be better to create a new group in the Data Portal with the name of the group the channels belong to in their respective files, or at least provide this option.

Clear error messages from user commands

Status: New Submitted by Member on 12-04-2020 05:40 AM 1 Comment

Errors occuring in Diadem user commands result in all running scripts aborting without any clear sign of the reason. The only means to find out is the log file in Diadem Script.

Support says this in a feature, as user commands are supposed to handle events and there should be no (frequent) error messages.

On the other side, user commands are the ideal place to have a user functions library as it is accessible from everywhere including dialogs. With ScriptInclude command such a library has to be included at every script start and possibly several times as dialogs have a separate script environment.

 

Therefore I would welcome an option to turn on error messages / beep when there is an error in user commands.

The current behaviour of silent abortion of any script is quite confusing, especially for people that are only applying scripts for evaluation.

Implement "autosave" option in SCRIPT

Status: New Submitted by Member on 10-28-2022 11:29 AM Comment

Other IDE programs (like PyCharm or Visual Studio Code) have an "autosave" feature which is very useful! After a certain amount of time, the script you are working on is auto-saved (if it has been saved).
