- The manual provided with Stereo Replay is very comprehensive and is
- unfortunantly much too large to publish here in a 250K demonstration.
- What follows however, is a short extract from the manual describing
- some of the more obscure functions of the sample EDITOR. These are
- mainly Keyboard only commands or Keyboard/Mouse combinations which are
- less obvious to the casual user than the MENU functions.
-
-
- Summary of EDITOR MOUSE controls
- --------------------------------
-
- The EDITOR supports an extensive range of POINTER and BLOCK marking
- controls. These are formed as a combination of clicks with the Left
- mouse button, 'Dragging' the mouse and pressing and holding a computer
- keyboard System key. When a System key is involved in the action, it
- must be pressed and held until AFTER the depression of the mouse
- button.
-

- POINTER TO MOUSE - Click Left mouse button on desired
- screen position

- Summary of KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
- -----------------------------
-
- The list below shows a series of EDITOR functions which are normally
- accessed via the MENU or from an ICON on the desktop, but for which a
- series of faster access keyboard alternatives exist. Please note that
- these commands require a combination of a system key (Control, Shift or
- Alternate) along with a standard Alpha key. It is necessary to press
- the system key before pressing the Alpha key, and release it AFTER the
- Alpha key. Occasionally more than one system key is required to be
- pressed, in which case they should be pressed simultaneously. The
- following abbreviations have been employed;
-
- ALT = ALTernate key CTRL = ConTRoL key SHFT = SHiFT key
-
- The abbreviation CTRL-A requires the user to press and hold the CONTROL
- key, press and release the 'A' key and finally release the CONTROL key.
