-While you have already begun to use UltraCard this frame !
contains information about how to use the stacks provided !
and how to configure your system.
ABOUT ULTRA:
------------
One of the first things you will notice is that UltraCard !
is looking for a "disk" called "ULTRA:".  This can either !
be a physical disk (such as a floppy named ULTRA) or !
a logical assignment made with the following CLI command:
(Example!)
ASSIGN ULTRA: DH0:
Assuming you have put your STACKS directory on the root !
directory of DH0:
From then on AmigaDOS will look at DH0: for references to !
ULTRA:.
STACK SIZE
----------
UltraCard must have at least a 10,000 byte stack.  If you !
want to run UltraCard from the CLI you must set your stack !
size to 10k (or larger) by using the CLI command:
STACK 10000

Creating Stacks
(Diamond 12
OBJECT.2960
Text.area
    aTo create a stack (in the production version only) you !
simply select NEW STACK from the Project menu.  You !
will be asked to select a name for the stack and then !
you will be prompted for the size (resolution) and the !
number of colors (depth) that you wish to use.
For example, the ControlRoom stack is 320 x 200 (resolution) !
and 32 colors (5 bit planes of depth).  You should use higher !
resolution when you have many objects or lots of text and the !
lower resolution when your information requires lots of colors.
Once you have specified the resolution and clicked on the !
OK button the new stack is created and the empty backdrop picture !
is saved.  You may then begin adding objects, loading backdrop !
pictures and using creating your stack.
To begin adding objects you select the MODIFY... menu item or !
press the F2 key.
Then select NEW from the EDIT menu or press the ESC key which !
turns the cursor into a cross-hairs.  Once you have the cross !
hair cursor on the screen you click and drag a rectangle the !
size you wish your object to be.  While dragging, BEFORE YOU LET !
THE MOUSE BUTTON UP, you may hold down the LEFT shift key and !
the rectangle will move around the screen rather than change !
size.  This can be very useful for aligning objects on top of !
an existing picture or relative to another object.
When you are done dragging the rectangle let up on the mouse button !
and the object is created.  You may then modifiy its attributes !
by picking from the PROPERTIES menu.
You can edit the action script for an object by double clicking !
on the object or by selecting SCRIPT from the PROPERTIES menu.
You can examine the scripts for stacks such as this one by entering !
modify mode and then editing the script for the object.  You begin !
by selecting the object with the mouse which will draw a dotted !
line around the current selection.
Feel free to borrow scripts from the stacks supplied by Intuitive !
Technologies as they are there for you to use.  Before you use !
scripts from someone else's stack please check with the stack !
author first so that no copyrights are violated.
After creating the objects press F1 to return to BROWSE mode to !
begin using the stack.
To add new frames pick from the FRAME item in the BROWSE mode !
edit menu.
To insert a backdrop picture pick IFF IMPORT from the EDIT menu !
in MODIFY MODE.

Using ARexx
pDiamond 12
OBJECT.3111
text.area
ARexx is a product which allows multiple programs running
on the Amiga to talk to each other.
UltraCard is an ideal way to create a friendly user interface !
for ARexx.  You can create buttons which start previously recorded !
ARexx scripts. Or you can actually embed the ARexx script inside the !
UltraTalk script for the button.
To run an previously recorded ARexx script simply make the !
script for an object read:
------------------------------
Select:
AREXX FROM viewpic.rexx
END_Select
------------------------------
(Viewpic.rexx is an example ARexx !
script from Steve Gillmor's June !
1989 Amazing Computing.)
To create an ARexx script inside a button's script you enclose !
the ARexx statements inbetween a "#BEGIN" and a "#END" line:
------------------------------
Select:
-- first create the ARexx prog
#BEGIN
/* ARexx program in a script */
ADDRESS PLANIT
'new.wks()'
'select(a1:a50)'
'analyze("FIRST CELL")'
'save.wks(":WORKSHEETS/MYSHEET")'
-- then run it!
AREXX
