@Box Dialog:

The @Box is a Rocrail Service to manage documents.
Each category will be placed in its own sub directory in the @Box path.

Without a valid support key the @Box will be readonly.

Activate this service by setting the @Box path in the Rocrail settings: Rocrail Services
After a restart this service will be available.

If the @Box path is set to a NAS or a service like Dropbox, it can be used on any computer which has access to it. In this case file links should be omitted.

All text fields which are marked with a @ can open the @Box dialog by a single click on its label if the text field contains any contents.
The text field contents will be used to do a find.

In this example the ID, Code, Roadname and Owner fields are supported.

Many context menus have an @Box menu item to open the @Box dialog with the ID of the selected object. (9835+)

Find all files which match the entered text and the selected state.("Both", "Open", "Done")
To find multiple sub strings in the Text they must be separated with an ampersand (&):

car&DB&stock

In this case the Text must contain "car", "DB" and "stock".

car & DB & stock

In this case the Text must contain "car_", "_DB_" and "_stock". (The "_" character represent a blanc.)

To find one or more sub strings in the Text they must be separated with an pipe (|):

car|DB

In this case the Text must contain ether "car" or "DB".

The search can include:

• Text
