OPUS just keeps getting better and better. I had to create a new Text Object with a client's web address. I was thinking ahead about having to highlight/select the url and using the Right Mouse click menu, creating a hyperlink, then having to program an Action to launch to the site.

What a "magic" surprise when OPUS automatically did all the work for me! As soon as I finished typing the "www.xxxx.com" url, OPUS took over and created the hyperlink and the Action code! WOW. I was really impressed. I don't remember this feature in previous versions. It is really a time saver!!!! Thank you DW. (Just a suggestion -- add "www" to the spell checker list of known words.)

Has anyone else discovered other "new" features like this?

Hi Fred,

Another neat little feature is how scripting code corrects itself as you type it.

It also now pops up little dialog messages of information as you type the parenthesis brackets. This gives options to all the parameter field data. In 04 you'd have to refer to the Help file... not now in 05. :D

This is helpful especially for people not experienced in OpusScript (like me) ;)
