Sequence Options menu
You will find the Sequence Options menu at the bottom right-hand
corner of the Sequence Palette. Click to view the pop-up menu. This
will bring up the following options:
Play Options
This dialog box allows you to select one of three modes to use when
playing a Sequence.
No Feedback plays the whole Sequence without refreshing
the screen while playing. This mode is the default setting
and allows for fastest operations; however, a single opera-
tion cant be seen during play. Only the end result of the
Sequence will be visible.
Refresh After Sequence refreshes the screen after each
operation. This mode forces the redrawing of the screen, but
all of the operations can be distinguished.
Pause After Sequence will pause the play of the Sequence
for a selectable amount of seconds after each operation.
This setting is very useful because it allows you to verify
each step of a Sequence.
Update Sequence Settings permanently stores all changed
values in a dialog box that is being applied in the Sequence.
When unchecked, the changed value will apply only once.
Insert Stop
This option allows you to place a Stop command at any point in a
Sequence. To place a Stop command in a Sequence, do the follow-
ing:
1
Open the Sequence and select the location where you wish to
place the stop.
2
Open the Sequence Options menu and select Insert Stop.
3
A dialog box opens in which you can enter a text message.
This short description will be displayed during play back.
This short description can help you organize your work. You may
also check the With Continue box if you wish the Sequence to con-
tinue playing after the text box is displayed. Click Cancel to reject
your entries or the OK button to accept your selections.

Tip
If the User Interface for the stop
is activated, then a message
box pops up with a pre-entered
text message. You can choose
to continue or to stop. A Stop
with text can display messages
as the Sequence plays back. A
Stop without text simply dis-
continues the Sequence.
