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).
