Extensions register
Extensions Manager developed to work in two modes:
- Local storage - allows to browse resources available locally on the workstation;
- Online gallery - this mode requires Internet connection to access an extensions register. This register is always available by the following url: https://smath.com/en-US/licensing/api/Extensions.
Please also note:
- If your copy of SMath Studio is connected to the Local Licensing Server it is required that Local Licensing Server has Internet connection to work with Online Gallery mode.
- SMath Studio Enterprise must be activated to work with Extensions Manager in Online gallery mode.
Sharing of extensions
Everyone from community is able to share extensions with others by registering of extensions using a simple web-based tool: https://smath.info/en-US/files/Registration. It allows to register extensions of any supported kind.
To get access to the sharing form one needs to create an account. As a result, sharing form will open where it will be possible to select type of the extension and to upload it to SMath root server.
In order to provide the best quality of the extensions every new registered extension must be approved by SMath support team before appearing within Extensions Manager. It usually took up to 2 working days to have registered extension available within Extension register. Updates of the already approved extension will replace previous version automatically, immediately after sharing.
Once extension approved SMath Studio will show it within Extensions Manager. It's that simple. Feel free to upload useful extensions to share them with community!
