Use code-only python scripts

This setting determines how GainSeeker creates new Python scripts that are used by Dashboards, used by Inspections, or run as standalone scripts.

Beginning with GainSeeker version 8.7, each new Python script can be designed in a simple code-only interface (similar to the "Custom Code" Action from previous GainSeeker versions).

In previous GainSeeker versions 8.4 - 8.6.1, each new Python script was designed as a series of Actions - each with its own setup interface.

In GainSeeker versions 8.7 and later, the Python Script Editor can be used to create, edit and debug both types of Python scripts.

The Use code-only python scripts setting determines which interface will be used when you create a new Python script.

Note: Python scripts that were created as Action-based scripts will always remain Action-based scripts, regardless of the Use code-only python scripts setting (which applies only to creating new scripts). This includes:
