Menus ----- Pasokon TV uses a graphical user interface for easy operation. Most operations are selected from the menus. The "Menu Bar" appears at the top of the screen: -------------------------------------------------- Run File Edit Image Less Pattern Setup Help -------------------------------------------------- These words are called the "Menu Titles." Here is an abbreviated sample menu: +------+ | File | <- Menu Title on +------+----------+ the Menu Bar | Open ... O | | Save ... S | <- Menu contains +-----------------+ Menu Items | Print P | +-----------------+ "..." after the Menu Item indicates that further user interaction is required. For example, "Open" and "Save" will display the File Selector. "Print" will perform its function without additional user input. There are two different ways to use the menus with the mouse. 1. - Move the mouse pointer to the desired Menu Title. - Press an HOLD down the left mouse button while moving the pointer to the desired Menu Item. - Finally release the mouse button. 2. - Click on the Menu Title. - Click on the desired Menu Item. When using the keyboard: - Press and hold down the "Alt" key. - Press the first letter of the Menu Title. - Release the "Alt" key. - Press a character listed on the right side of the menu. It is not always necessary to display a menu before to pick an item from that menu. For example, you could select the Open item by simply pressing the letter "O" instead of Alt-F and then O. The menu system treats upper and lower case characters as the same so "o" is equivalent to "O". The Menus --------- Run User defined commands to run external programs.
