Description

The Std New command creates a new empty document and makes it the active document.

Usage

There are several ways to invoke the command:

    • Press the Std New.svg New button.
    • Select the File → Std New.svg New option from the menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+N.

Preferences

See also: Preferences Editor.

  • By default LabRPS start without a new document. Check the Edit → Preferences... → General → Document → Create new document at start up option to change this behavior.
  • Some document properties: author name, company name and license information, can be preset: Edit → Preferences... → General → Document → Authoring and License.

Properties

See also: Property editor.

Most properties can also be changed in the dialog box of the Std ProjectInfo command.

Scripting

See also: Autogenerated API documentation and LabRPS Scripting Basics.

To create a new document use the newDocument([name], [hidden=False]) method of the LabRPS application. The document name must be unique, which is checked automatically. If no name is supplied, the document will be named "Untitled". If hidden=True is used, the new document won't be displayed in the GUI and no tab will appear for it.

import LabRPS
from pathlib import Path

# The folder and filename we will use:
fld = 'D:/testfiles/'
fnm = fld + 'test.RPSStd'

# Make sure fld exists:
Path(fld).mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

doc = LabRPS.newDocument()
doc.saveAs(fnm)

LabRPS.closeDocument(doc.Name)

doc = LabRPS.open(fnm)
doc.save()

LabRPS.closeDocument(doc.Name)
