- PmDraw - Beta Version for Professional Developer's Kit
- for OS/2 2.0
- by Alan C. Warren, IBM
-
- PmDraw is IBM Employee Written Software (EWS) and is
- governed by the separate document on EWS software. Please
- understand these terms.
-
- PmDraw is an application designed for presentation graphics,
- including limited graphing. It is designed to take advantage
- of several OS/2 features, including threads (i.e. menu options
- can be selected even while an image is redrawing or loading).
-
- To install PmDraw, place all the files in their own directory
- (e.g. \PMDRAW). Create a program object by dragging a Program
- template from the Templates folder to any desired folder.
- Then, in the Path and file name field, enter x:\path\PMDRAW.EXE
- (replacing "x" and "path" as appropriate). In the Working
- directory field enter x:\path (again, replacing "x" and "path"
- as appropriate). Click on the General tab, and change the name
- of the program object from Program to PmDraw. Close the settings
- notebook. To start PmDraw, simply double click on this program
- object.
-
- Once you have started PmDraw, you are prompted to open a file or
- start a new drawing. Sample clipart is provided, so you may choose
- to open an existing drawing if you wish. Then PmDraw will present
- a grid, with any drawing selected, along with the available menu
- options. For further help on using PmDraw, select Help -> Extended
- Help. The online help information may be printed for convenience.
-
- Certain PmDraw features involving image files (BMP, GIF) require the
- Image Toolkit, available on the OS/2 Professional Developer's Kit
- CD-ROM, which may be ordered from IBM.
