This is an example of source code in an Imagix 4D File Editor. Symbols known in the Imagix 4D database have hypertext tags - the color indicates whether it's a class, function, variable, type or macro.
The File Editors are tightly integrated with the rest of Imagix 4D, helping you quickly explore and understand the information that Imagix 4D generates about your software.
For instance, you maybe doing source browsing. Holding down the mouse button on any of the symbols in the editor pops up the Symbol Information overlay providing information about the symbol, in this case finish. Double-clicking on the symbol moves you to its definition. And the NextRef and PrevRef icons at the left of the toolbar cycle you through all the uses of the symbol. The time you spend hunting through files is significantly reduced.
As you navigate through your code, the Graph window provides cross-reference information. You can look at a variable in a File Editor, and see in the Graph window where it is set and read.
Or you may want to study a complex function in detail. You can view the detailed source code and the Flow Chart side-by-side. Clicking on the File Editor will show you where you are in the internal program logic of the function. Conversely, you can click on the Flow Chart to see the code for a specific decision point.
