How can I obtain an officially registered macro prefix for my self-written FBoxes?

FAQ #101044

 

Why should I register a macro prefix for my FBoxes?
The FBox macro prefixes must be PG5-wide unique. In order to make sure that the used macro prefix of a FBox library will also be unique in future, Saia-Burgess Controls AG strongly recommends registering an own prefix. This registration is quickly done and is for free.
For more information regarding the macro prefix and symbol naming conventions, please refer to FAQ 100375 (link below).
