Using the Working Data Store (WDS)

When creating a plugin, report, or script in O-Calc Pro it is helpful to be able to store information such as state, history, or keys identifying external data sources directly in the PPLX elements. O-Calc Pro provides a mechanism for this in the form of the Working Data Store (WDS).

Multiple reports from a single report definition

It is often the case that there might be two (or more) versions of a report in O-Calc Pro.

The ‘Show on Google Earth’ O-Calc Pro Plugin Explained

As a more advanced example of an O-Calc Pro plugin, this article describes the ‘Show on Google Earth’ Plugin. First to understand how this particular integration with Google Earth works from a user perspective, have a look at the following video.

Understanding the PPL Coordinate Space
