Overview ¶

This window allows you to create and edit defined VOP struct data types. See VOP structs for more information on using structs in VOPs.

The left side of the window has a list of existing struct types. The right side lets you edit the struct you select on the left.

How to ¶

To...	Do this
Add a new type	Open the Create menu and choose “Struct”. Use the controls on the right side to edit the struct (see below).
Delete an existing type	Click the small delete icon to the right of the struct’s name in the list.
Rename an existing type	Select the struct on the left. Edit the Name parameter on the right.
Load definitions from a file	Click the Load Definitions icon above the struct list. The file should be a JSON file like the files used to store the types.
