Better Examples in the Variable Documentation #2797

Open chjaway opened 6 months ago

chjaway commented 6 months ago

Is this a feature relevant to companion itself, and not a module?

Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the feature

The enhanced examples would include screenshots (or permit copy/paste) examples to better describe how to use Functions & Expressions. Yes, the documentation talks about simple expressions, etc.. but they don't appear to actually work with my custom variables, so I must assume that I'm doing something incorrectly. Clearly just copying & pasting "includes("Companion is great!", "great") gives true" into a button label doesn't do anything. I would like to see screenshots of live examples of how the variable functions are actually called/leveraged within Companion
