Description

The Std DlgRPSFeatures command opens the Feature manager. With the Feature manager you can install and manage RPS features and their parent plugins.

The RPS features are contained inside the plugins.

Options

  • The plugins available in the Feature manager are not necessarily part of the official LabRPS program and are not supported by the core LabRPS development team. You should read the provided information carefully to make sure you know what you are installing.
  • Bug reports and feature requests should be made directly to the creator of the plugin by visiting the indicated website. Many plugin developers are regular users of the LabRPS forum and can also be contacted there.
