Job Editor Window
Job Editor Window is the main part of RockTomate: this is where most time is spent editing Job and running Jobs.
When instantiated, the window gets auto-docked next to Game or Scene windows if they're present.
Toolbar
At the top, the window displays a relative path to a Job which is currently being edited.
Steps
Opens Step Browser Window.
Variables
Opens Variable Manager Window.
Logs
Opens Job Session Console Window.
Expand/Collapse All
Expands/Collapses all steps that have child steps.
Play
Begins the execution of a currently edited Job.
Stop
Interrupts the execution of a currently executing Job.
Note that sometimes the operation may not be possible depending on the nature of the Job. For example, when building a project, a progress bar appears which blocks input on background UI including RockTomate's Job Editor Window. There is now workaround for this.
