TITLE: How To Create a Frame in the Same Position on Multiple Pages PRODUCT: Ami Pro 2.0 DATE: 25-Sep-1991 PROBLEM: How can a frame be easily created in the same position on different pages or in different files? SOLUTION: In Ami Pro release 2.0, a new feature in creating frames allows for automatic placement of frames using the same size and position as the last frame created. Frames can be created in the same location on different pages of a document or in different files. The positioning and sizing measurements remain until changed by changing the settings in the Create Frame dialog box or by manually creating a frame. Follow these steps to create a frame in the same size and position on multiple pages of a document or in a different document. NOTE: If the last frame created is in the desired size and position, skip to step 3. 1. Choose Frame / Create Frame. 2. Specify the desired frame size and position in the Create Frame dialog box and choose OK (or choose Manual to create a frame manually). 3. Access the page or file where the next frame in the same size and position should be created. 4. Choose Frame / Create Frame (the previous size and position settings will be in the Create Frame dialog box). 5. Choose OK. The new frame will be created in the same size and position as the first frame. SHORTCUT TIPS If a mouse is being used, SmartIcons are available for creating a frame manually and for creating a frame using previous settings. These icons can be installed by following these steps: 1. Choose Tools / SmartIcons. 2. Choose Customize. 3. Drag the Add a frame and Add a frame using previous settings icons from Standard Icons to Current Palette to the desired positions. 4. Choose OK. 5. Select Show SmartIcons with an X. 6. Choose OK. After these icons have been added, click on the Add frame icon to create a frame manually (create the frame by pressing the left mouse button and dragging the frame to the desired size) or click on the Add frame using previous settings icon to create a frame using the size and position of the last frame created (the frame will be automatically created).
