- WebMap reads GIF and PICT files, and allows you to draw out the various
- graphic primitives (rectangle, circle, and polygon) that represent the hot
- areas on an html image map. WebMap supports both the CERN and NCSA imagemap
- formats.
-
- To use WebMap, open an image file, and draw the graphic primitives over the areas
- of the image that should be clickable in an html browser (Mosaic, etc.), set
- the URL for each object, and export the marker definitions into a .map file.
-
- Using WebMap is fairly straightforward. It allows you to draw rectangles,
- circles, and polygons, move them (1 or more at a time), and resize them.
-
- Option-click on an object to edit it’s URL (I will get double clicking going
- as soon as possible).
-
- Undo is supported for creating, deleting, moving and resizing objects
- when you use the mouse (not the keyboard).
-
- Below is a description of how to tweak the objects with the keyboard.
-
- Keyboard control of objects:
-
-
- Resizing:
-
- Modifier Key(s) = Command Command-Control
-
- Left Arrow Shrinks Horizontally 1 Pixel Shrinks Horizontally 10 Pixels
- Up Arrow Shrinks Vertically 1 Pixel Shrinks Vertically 10 Pixels
- Right Arrow Grows Horizontally 1 Pixel Grows Horizontally 10 Pixels
- Down Arrow Grows Vertically 1 Pixel Grows Vertically 10 Pixels
-
-
- Moving:
-
- Modifier Key(s) = None Control
-
- Left Arrow Moves Left 1 Pixel Moves Left 10 Pixels
- Up Arrow Moves Up 1 Pixel Moves Up 10 Pixels
- Right Arrow Moves Right 1 Pixel Moves Right 10 Pixels
- Down Arrow Moves Down 1 Pixel Moves Down 10 Pixel s
-
-
-
- *NOTE: At this time, you cannot resize or reshape polygons. If the polygon is not
- drawn right, you must delete it and draw it again. Sorry about that, but it may
- change in the future.
-
-
- List Pane:
-
- On the right hand side of the window, there is a list of URL’s, 1 for each object.
- Just double click an item, or select the item and type ‘return’ to edit the URL.
-
- See WebMap’s online help for more information on using WebMap, and on the NCSA
- and CERN .map file formats.

- 11/23/94 Fixed bug that ignored the user’s choice of NCSA or CERN in the “Export As Text…”
- save dialog.
-
- WebMap does not open a new window when the applicatio is first run (unless you
- launched it by opening a document form the finder, of course).
