- README.SHP 6/28/93
- =================================================================
-
- This README file contains information about the changes and
- enhancements made to WordPerfect Shared Applications 1.5 for
- Windows. This information is not yet documented in the WordPerfect
- Corporation Products Shared Applications guide.
-
-
- COLUMN MANAGER
- ====================
- The Column Manager control box lets you customize the layout of
- lists for File Manager, WP Presentations' Slide List, and other
- WPCorp applications that utilize a similar list format. To use the
- Column Manager, click the right mouse button while the mouse
- pointer is over a blank area of the column heading bar. This
- displays the Column Manager control box, from which you can choose
- additional column heading options.
-
-
- CONVERT
- ====================
- When pasting text from the Windows Clipboard, international
- versions of WP Presentations read the defined code page and
- properly display the international characters. The code page must
- be set in the WPC.INI file as follows with the actual code page
- number replacing the "CODEPAGE#" in the string:
-
- [Settings]
- WinCodepage="CODEPAGE#"
-
- [Convert]
- WinCodepage="CODEPAGE#"
-
- See Appendix B in the Shared Applications guide for a complete list
- of supported code page numbers.
-
-
- FILE MANAGER
- ====================
-
- When copying or moving files to a removable disk (floppy disk or
- removable disk cartridge) that does not contain sufficient space,
- the user is prompted to "insert another diskette" to continue
- moving or copying the selected files.
-
- When copying or moving a complete directory with subdirectories to
- a removable diskette, the software automatically creates the
- subdirectories on the new disk. If the disk is filled before a
- complete subdirectory can be copied, the user is prompted to insert
- a new diskette, and the subdirectory structure is created on the
- new diskette.
-
-
- KEYBOARD EDITOR
- ====================
- The Keyboard Editor now allows the remapping of Alt+Ctrl and
- Alt+Ctrl+Shift key combinations. Remapping of all punctuation
- character key combinations, including Alt+punctuation is also
- available. To remap punctuation keys, you must check the box for
- "Allow reassigning of a, b, c, ... 1, 2, 3" from the Keyboard
- Editor.
-
-
- OPEN DIALOG BOX
- ====================
- On the Open dialog box, options for Create Directory and Remove
- Directory are now available from the Options list. When you choose
- one of these options, a dialog box appears which lets you confirm
- the creation or deletion of a directory.
-
-
- The Confirm Replace dialog box now supports the following options
- for moving or copying a file:
-
- "Yes" replaces the current file and highlights the next file
- to move or copy.
-
- "Yes to All" replaces all files that do not have the read-
- only, hidden, or system attribute.
-
- "No" skips the current file and continues with the next file
- to confirm.
-
- "Cancel" aborts the move or copy process and redisplays the
- Open dialog box.
-
- The program automatically displays the Confirm Replace dialog box
- when you attempt to copy or move a file marked with the read- only,
- hidden, or system attribute. This occurs even when the user has
- selected "Yes to All."
-
-
- PRINTER PROGRAM
- ====================
- The Printer Program (PTR.EXE), described in the Shared Applications
- guide, is used to edit WordPerfect printer drivers. Because WP
- Presentations supports only Windows printer drivers, you cannot use
- the PTR.EXE program to adjust the print settings of WP
- Presentations.
-
-
- SPELLER
- ====================
- When the US or UK speller dictionaries (WP{WP}US.LEX or
- WP{WP}UK.LEX) are not found, and the English-Canadian speller
- dictionary is available, The Speller will use the WP{WP}CE.LEX
- dictionary to spell-check documents that contain a US or UK
- language code.
