jackstone Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I'm a bit new to DriverEditor, I always hate the way it worked so I've done my coding using straight Wordpad in the past, but the C4Z format complicate a bit the use of external editor to build driver, even if we pack the files as a ZIP and rename it to C4Z, we can't still encrypt properly, so I have no choice of using DriverEditor now... The first issue I have right now is to find a way to reorder the properties in the XML part of the driver, I know I can edit the XML file in the C4Z and do the reorder but I'm sure there is a better way to do it into within DriverEditor??? Someone can help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHA Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 I was having this issue yesterday. In the end I used notepad to rearrange them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyknight Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 notepad++ ftw. DriverEditor is used to do a check, maybe edit version numbers etc and if needed encrypt afterwards. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackstone Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Ahh man... admit that it is PITA to have to switch back and forth to have a working driver to test... Was way easier with C4I. I also use NotePad++ it goes way better for editing... Anyway, still waiting to know if someone know how to move properties within DriverEditor...

Cyknight Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 What properties, if you mean the order in which things are set in the XML file - then it's possible to do this within the editor by opening the xml - it's built in 'xml editor' is poor though - or I should say, i simply prefer using notepad++. You can have the project open in both, DriverEditor will see when changes are made by an external program and reload. And as the test comes back fine pretty much 99% of the time on my drivers, it's not that much of a chore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackstone Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 I know that,,, But I though there is a way to reorder things right into DriverEditor... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Does anyone know how to do this? Reorder properties from within DriverEditor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackstone Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 This feature is not yet implemented, just as the LABEL and TRACK properties you need to add manually to the xml using a text editor. DriverEditor is clearly due to a major update... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 I think you're right - it is getting rather ancient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
