| Plug-ins
are small files created using Easy Grade Pro that can be used to distribute
import formats, export formats and summary comments to other Easy
Grade Pro users. |
| To
create a plug-in of an import or export format: |
| Choose
Import or Export from the File menu, click the Other Formats tab and
select the desired format from the list. Press on the small blue arrow
above the list and choose Save Item as Plug-in from the menu that
appears. Then name and save the plug-in. |
| To
create a plug-in of the list of comments in the Summaries window: |
| Choose
Summaries from the Chart menu, click the Students tab on the left
and the Comments tab on the right. Press on the small blue arrow above
the lower list and choose Save Comments as Plug-in from the menu that
appears. Then name and save the plug-in. |
|
To
distribute a plug-in file:
|
|
Plug-in files should be placed
in the same folder as the Easy Grade Pro application or should be
placed in a folder titled Plug-ins found in the same folder as the
Easy Grade Pro application. Whenever a person opens an Easy Grade
Pro gradebook using version 3.5.6 or higher, Easy Grade Pro scans
the plug-ins and transfers their contents to the gradebook.
Be careful with plug-ins. A
plug-in with comments will prevent the user from making lasting
changes to comments in the Summary window. If the user makes changes
to comments, the next time the gradebook is opened, the changes
will be erased and replaced with what is found in the comments plug-in.
|
| To
remove a plug-in: |
|
Drag the file out of the Plug-ins
folder and out of the Easy Grade Pro folder. Note: this does not
remove the contents of a plug-in from a gradebook if the contents
have already been read into the gradebook.
