Requirements

• Igor Pro version 6.3.0 or later

Installation

1. Install Igor.
2. Start Igor. This creates a folder called WaveMetrics in Documents. Close Igor.

Features

• Shows all functions/macros from a procedure file including parameter types, return types and special properties like static and threadsafe.
• Shows Menu/Constant/StrConstant/Structure entries.
• Shows the structure name for window hook and background tasks for easier searching.
• Allows jumping to the definition of these elements within the code by mouse and keyboard.
• Optionally alphabetically sorted lists.
• Shows function comments as tooltips (IP8 only).
• Works with Independent Modules.

For reasons of ease-of-use the function declarations are displayed as myFunction(var, str) -> var for a function taking a variable and string parameter and returning a variable. Programmers might recognize this as being inspired by the trailing return types from C++11.

Navigation by keyboard

• CTRL+0: Open the panel.
• Jump to the definition of the listbox selection with .
• Pressing any character while the ListBox has the focus activates the first listbox entry which starts with that character.

Limitations

• No parameter types are shown for macros
