This disc provides !NewLook 1.00, an application which provides a new appearance
for the RISC OS 3 desktop. In future versions of RISC OS this is likely to
become the default settings.
For information on how to use !NewLook, select it in the directory display,
click on MENU, move to the submenu entitled 'NewLook', and choose Help on
that menu.
This new look is only recommended for users with hard discs, as loading from
floppy disc is quite cumbersome and the result is aesthetic rather than
functional. Considerable memory is also consumed at run time.
This disc also provides 3D template files for the two applications discs
and the support disc. In order to apply these to your applications, proceed
as follows:
Open your App1 directory on your hard disc.
Open the TemplApp1 directory on this disc.
Click MENU over the TemplApp1 directory, and choose 'Select all'.
Press SELECT over the TemplApp1 directory, and drag all of the selected
applications into the App1 directory. Release SELECT. This will copy
replacement Template files from TemplApp1 into App1.
Repeat this procedure with App2 and TemplApp2.
Repeat this procedure with Support and TemplSupp.
Any applications now started up from these directories should have 3D
dialogue box elements.
!NewLook contains replacement template files for all ROM applications to
give them 3D buttons etc. Loading these does not affect tasks which are
already running (eg. the filer, the task manager). In order to get 3D
dialogue boxes on these you must RMLoad the files BorderUtil and ROMApps3D
from within !NewLook as part of your machine boot sequence, before the
desktop starts up. Choose Help from the directory display menu for more
information on how to do this. After BorderUtil has been loaded do not
reload, reinitialise or RMFaster the window manager.
