Tape Window
 
When you perform a series of conversions, you might want to verify your entries and print or save your results.
The Tape window gives you this opportunity. When it is displayed, it automatically records all conversions performed by Euro Assistant. Its content can be printed, saved to a text file or clipped.

 













Showing and Hiding the Tape
 
To show or hide the Tape window choose the "Show Tape" or the "Hide Tape" command in the File Menu. The Tape window can also be hidden by clicking its close box.
When the Tape window is hidden, Euro Assistant stops recording conversions, but the logged results (if any) are not lost.


Clearing the Tape
 
To delete the Tape window's content choose the "Clear Tape" command in the Edit Menu. Notice that this operation cannot be undone.
You can also clear the Tape by dragging its content to the Trash.


Advancing the Tape
 
In the Tape window subsequent conversions are automatically separated by a blank line.
Choose the "Advance Tape" command in the Edit Menu to place additional blank lines between a tape entry and the following one.

 


















Printing the Tape
 
The Tape window's content can be printed by selecting the "Print Tape..." command in the File Menu. The printout can be formatted to any scale, page size and orientation by selecting the desired options in the "Page Setup" dialog box ("Page Setup..." command in the File Menu).
Each printed page has a header indicating the print date and time and the page number. The Tape's content is ranged in one or more columns.

 













Saving the Tape
 
Euro Assistant gives you the possibility to save the Tape window's content to a text file.
Show the Tape window and choose the "Save Tape..." command in the File Menu to open the "Save" dialog box.
Specify the name of the file and where you want to save it and click the "Save" button. You'll obtain a SimpleText file containing the Tape window's conversions.

 






















Clipping the Tape
 
A very quick way of exporting the Tape window's content to another application (a word processor, a spreadsheet, ... ) is to drag and drop it to the desired document window of the other application. Alternatively you can drag the Tape window's content to the desktop and make a clipping with all conversions listed in the Tape window.
