Référence des scripts

Cette page contient du matériel de référence pour les fonctions de script.

Voir la page Boîtes à outils pour des informations générales.

Voir les exemples de scripts pour un démarrage rapide avec les fonctions de programmation.

Langage de script

Le langage de programmation utilisé est Pascal Script.
Pour une référence complète du langage Pascal Objet, vous pouvez lire Free Pascal Reference guide. Mais attention, certaines fonctionnalités ne sont pas implémentées par le langage de script, par exemple: pas de pointeur, pas d'assembleur, pas de surcharge.

En plus des fonctions standard de Pascal Script, les fonctions suivantes spécifiques à Cartes du Ciel sont ajoutées.

Fonctions du menu principal

Tous les éléments du menu principal peuvent être utilisés à partir des scripts.
La liste complète des noms de menu est disponible à partir de la liste des menus.

Vous pouvez exécuter l'action du menu à l'aide de la méthode Click ou tester si une option est activée en testant la propriété Checked.

Chaînes des traductions

Chaque chaîne traduite pour le programme principal peut être utilisée dans un script.
Utilisez directement la constante rsXXX pour obtenir la chaîne traduite.
La liste complète des chaînes disponibles est disponible à partir du code source.
Si une chaîne n'est pas traduite pour votre langue n'hésitez pas à le faire vous même.

Constantes

deg2rad	degree to radian conversion constant
