Tips & Tricks
The text editor features syntax coloration, static analysis and code completion based on the types and functions available through the script API. It should help you to write code more easily:
If you want to write your scripts into an external text editor (for example, to edit more than one file at a time), we recommend Visual Studio Code. It provides the same core functionnalities.
In order to benefit from documentation and code completion inside VSCode, you will have to provide the path to the description file (.d.ts) containing the description of the script API. The description file is located into the installation folder.
To do so, just put the following comment at the top of your script (the triple slash /// are required):
/// <reference path="C:\Program Files\Leica Geosystems\Cyclone 3DR\Script\JsDoc\Reshaper.d.ts" />
