While scripts are running, you may still view and manipulate scripts and plots, depending on the language used.
Compose supports OML, Tcl, Python, and R languages. The use of the interpreter language is first defined by the script being executed.
You can record your session actions (in the Editor) as macros to replay them at a later time using the Macros menu.
Scripts can be executed by clicking Run.
In Compose, you can create 2-D and 3-D plots using OML plotting commands.
Use the Debugger to find errors in the script.
The Compose Notebook is a web-based implementation of Compose’s OpenMatrix Language (OML) into a Jupyter Notebook. Notebooks (see www.jupyter.org) are a powerful way to execute and demonstrate scripted languages.
OML functions can be registered from the Compose graphical user interface or via a preference file and later opened in certain HyperWorks products.
Reference guides are available for functions and commands supported by OML, Tcl, and Python.
