   Figure 118. OpenDoc Templates Folder 

   You can drag and drop any template icon to the Desktop or a folder to 
   create a new OpenDoc document.  The following are short descriptions for 
   each part: 

   1.  2D Graphics is a 2D graphics-handling part. 

   2.  Page Layout is a scrollable, multi-page container part that allows you 
       to see, on screen, how a document will look when printed. 

   3.  Text Part is a base text-handling part. 

   4.  Cookbook Part does not have any functions available to the user.  It 
       is in the sample templates folder for the developers. 

   5.  Hello World Part shows you an example of a PM control as an OpenDoc 
       part.  You can see a counter incrementing as you click the mouse 
       button. 

   6.  Push Button Part shows you an example of a PM control as an OpenDoc 
       part. You can see a message window by pressing the push button. 

   7.  Ticker Tape 1 Part shows you a ticker tape text scrolling in its 
       frame. 

   8.  Ticker Tape 2 Part shows you a ticker tape text scrolling in its frame 
       as does Ticker Tape 1 Part.  This part handler subclasses from Ticker 
       Tape 1; it inherits all of Ticker Tape 1 part's features.  This 
       handler has improved upon the updating of ticker tape text.  This is 
       an example of how new features can be built upon a part handler by 
       subclassing from that part handler for the developers with its source 
       code. 

   9.  Container Part demonstrates changing the menu to share it by parts, 
       embedding other parts, and drag and drop. 


   For a detailed description of each part refer to "Using the OpenDoc 
   Templates" in topic 4.2.2.
