EasiWriter uses Menus, where you can choose the action you want the computer to perform next, saving you from having to remember (or type) long, awkward sequences of commands. You get a different menu depending on where the pointer is when you click Menu (the centre mouse button).
Menus can be moved by pressing Select or Adjust and dragging in their title bar.
To choose an item from a menu, position the pointer on it and click Select or Adjust to choose the menu item you want. If you click Select the menu disappears when the action is carried out. If you click Adjust the menu remains on the screen, unless the item leads to a dialogue box.
When a menu choice is unavailable or inappropriate it will be shown in grey type (dimmed) and can't be chosen.
Where a menu item is followed by an arrow, it means that there is a submenu for that item.
Move the mouse pointer over the arrow and the submenu will appear. To close a menu without making a choice click Select or Adjust with the mouse pointer outside the menu, or press Esc.
Some menu items represent properties that can be turned on or off.
When they are 'on', a tick is displayed to the left of the menu.
Some menu items can be chosen directly from the keyboard using the function keys or by holding down Ctrl and/or Shift while pressing another key. These keyboard alternatives are shown to the right of the of the menu option. Ctrl is represented by a caret ' Ù', Shift by 'Ý'.
