Short Description

The EForms Oil Editor is an alternative editor to modify oil files.

It is a graphical editor developed using Evidence EForms library.

Screenshots

Since RT-Druid is based on Eclipse, and Eclipse may run on multiple platforms, like Windows and Linux, so also RT-Druid may be used on multiple platforms. The actual “look and feel” of RT-Druid depends on the actual platforms where RT-Druid is running.

Where not explicitly expressed, the screenshots are taken using Windows 7.

Open EForms Oil Editor

To open an oil file using the EForms Oil Editor

  • select the file in Eclipse:

  • press the mouse right button
  • select “Open With -> EFORMS OIL”.

Note, Eclipse uses the black dot to show the default editor used to open the selected file. Every time a different editor is chosen, Eclipse updates the default editor for that specific file.

The EForms Oil Editor is structured as multi-tab editor. Here is a screenshot of the default tab:

Undo-Redo

Every change done through the editor is stored (one history for each instance of editor), so it is always possible to undo an action or redo an “undone” action. Be aware that, once the editor is closed, this list of actions is lost.
