- The "After the manual was printed..." remarks:
- ----------------------------------------------
-
-
-
- Some added features:
- --------------------
-
- - To jump to any other page in your script while running, you may
- enter the number of page you want to go to on the keyboard followed
- by enter or return.
-
- ex: To go to page 19, simply press 19 and <enter>.
-
- - We decided to put a small dot in place of the @ letter, to make
- it easier to set up "text bullets".
-
- - 6 new page transitions and 9 new text transitions were added,
- all using the "ease in" technique.
-
- - On the first font disk, we added a sample script which shows all
- the different fonts available in Scala. Also, we added a number
- of "pictograms"; small symbols with trains, food and so forth.
- Finally, we added 2 types of arrows in 8 different directions, and
- 35 different palettes which all work with all the Scala
- Backgrounds.
-
-
- Some known quirks:
- ------------------
-
- - Using a different front color on a symbol than 1 (white)
- will make the symbol disappear while using a fly-on wipe.
- There are some solutions to this inconvenience:
-
- a)Use color 1 for the symbol if you want to use a fly-on effect
- b)Use a wipe effect instead
- c)Save it in DPaint as a regular multi-color brush.
-
- - Trying to use damaged IFF files (BAD FORM) will currently cause
- a system crash. If you have problems with a particular file, try
- loading and saving it again in your favourite paint package.
-
- - While starting Scala from the CLI, you must be in the Scala
- directory - or Scala will not be able to find it's dear and
- necessary companion, ScalaPlayer. Use the CD command for this.
-
- - The 12 point GoudyB mentioned in the manual (and used in our
- sample font script) did unfortunately not make it to the master
- disk.
-
- - Using interactive buttons under WB 2.0 will not behave properly,
- due to a bug in Kickstart 2.0. You will have to click below the
- buttons in order to hit them. We hope Commodore will fix this
- before the release of the final 2.0 version.

- The Scala BBS Service:
- ----------------------
-
- If you are a modem user, why don't you call our Scala User
- Bulletin Board System located at the MediaFoto BBS in Oslo,
- Norway. If you're a registered user, we will give you access to
- the conference after your first logon.
-
- The BBS service is set up for users to bring in suggestions for
- new Scala features and the various experiences of your use of the
- program. New releases of the program will also be obtainable from
- here. The number is + 47 2 17 60 56. Welcome!
