User reviews

Very good if you know the function you want to use, is there a way to make it autocomplete (or offer options based on the first letters you have typed)? And, could you make it suggest which other functions can be used to provide the argument a function uses (for example, if I need a number in my function argument, can you list all the functions that return a number)?

Has a lot of potential but I ran into some issues while using it. First, the contents pane blocks out most of the information when it is active. Second, the text shows up for too small on my screen to be helpful. Edit: You have addressed all my concerns!

I used the plugin with Chrome. Here are some observations: 1) for some functions help appeared, but not others 2) as others note, the text is extremely tiny and nearly impossible to read w/o setting your zoom to 200% 3) if you click on the “See more info” link, it takes you to Anaplan help in the current browser window, rather than opening a new one. When I used the back arrow to return to my module, I was instead brought to the settings tab with my module closed. This is a deal breaker for me.
