I didn't see anything in the install instructions telling me about this but problem is solved now.

Hello Joe,

you are right, that part somehow went missing. Strange.

The mshtml Assembly in question is usually present on a Windows system. But for a handful of people it isn't - that is why I included a disabled version of it in the installer. Until now I was sure that I wrote that down, but looking through the doc I can't find it again. 

Best regards

Hi,

only with the "Edit Kneeboard" feature. It is possible to create standard checkboxes using the HTML editor of the Scratchpad. But there is no special control for them, so you would have to edit the HTML code and insert the box manually (<INPUT type="checkbox"/>). I will see if I can make that a little easier by adding a button or something..

Best regards

Proof of concept:

When you know your way around HTML it takes about 5 minutes to change the kneeboard checklist of the standard Robinson to incorporate real checkboxes:

  ...
<tr>
    <td style="border-style: none; border-width: medium" width="291" class="dotted">
    <input type="checkbox"/>
    <font face="Arial" style="font-size: 9pt; font-weight:700"><span class="notdotted"> Cyclic, 
    collective, pedals</span></font></td>
    <td style="border-style: none; border-width: medium" width="170">
    <font face="Arial" style="font-size: 9pt; font-weight:700">FULL TRAVEL FREE</font></td>
  </tr>
...

I will see if I can integrate checkboxes into the editor in a way that makes this easier to handle.

Best regards

Hello @ll,

the checkbox is now part of the right-click context menu in the Kneeboard Editor of the Lorby Scratchpad -> Version 1.02 b01 is available for download.
