11 LogWorks Libraries
LogWorks has multiple libraries. These libraries are used to store frequently used searches or
calculations. When using the LogWorks Log Window, the Trace Libraries or the search Library is
used. When using the 3D chart, the Chart Library is used.
Each library entry or formula has a name under which it can be easily identified, and (optionally) a
category to which it belongs to further simplify and find calculations or searches.
So that distracting duplicate entries are avoided, the Trace Library is divided into two parts. One
part is in US units, the other in international units. You select which Library is used by selecting
the appropriate Preferences in the LogWorks Main Window menu.
Libraries are plain text files. So they can be opened and edited by any text editing program, even
the simple Notepad program built into Window. In practice, this is rarely necessary because the
Library editor built into LogWorks can accomplish all Library management tasks. For details on
the file format of Library text files, see chapter 7.4 Library formats.
The library files must be in the same folder as the LogWorks.exe program for LogWorks to
find them.
