Scripts; Template Text; Can now use "#include" directives to include a "Function Library" Script's Template Text

The "#include" directive has been available to Script Code since finPOWER Connect was released.

This type of directive can now be used by HTML Widgets to include a Function Library's Template Text (usually HTML or JavaScript or both) into the Template Text.

NOTE: This relies on the Script's Template Text being returned as follows (as it is in all system-supplied HTML Widgets):

' Handle Events
Select Case eventId
  Case ""
    ' Main event, i.e., return initial HTML content (excluding html and body tags)
    returnValue = ScriptInfo.TemplateText
End Select

The following is an example of an HTML Widget's Template Text using this directive:

<h2>Begin - In the main Script</h2>
#include "J032419.FL"
<h2>End - In the main Script</h2>

A new "Info" button is shown below the Template Text field on the Scripts form, detailing how the new "#include" directive is used.

Right-clicking in the Template Text field allows you to insert a "#include" directive from a list of Function Library Scripts that define Template Text.

NOTE: In the Script Code field, the list of available Function Library Scripts shown when right-clicking now only includes Scripts that define Script Code.
