I’m sitting here at Chicago O’Hare airport, delayed for over 3 hours due to the nasty storm covering the midwest, and chatting with Nick Zeeben. I was looking for something to write about, and happened to remember something I saw while reading the New Features Workshop (you DO read that, don’t you?) and kept seeing on my tool palettes - assemblies! I tried to add one (the program comes with some pre-installed on a new palette) and was unsuccessful. I tried a variety of different methods, and nothing worked. Instead of beating my head against the wall trying to figure it out (and attracting the unwanted attention of airport security,) I decided to ask Nick. He’s always good for an answer, even if it’s one that I don’t want to hear. If you want to see how this is accomplished, follow the link!
