Top-Line (Drop-Down) Menu: File
===============================
Pic. Load
---------
Click on this and a box comes up, select which of the three
screens the picture is to load onto. If you load onto a screen
which already has a picture on it, the original picture will be
overwritten.
Next select the picture format to be loaded. This program works
with screen-sized pictures (there is one exception, dealt with
under 'Double Page') and some formats such as IMG can have images
bigger than one screen. In such a case Paintshop does load the
top part of the picture, but only one screen's worth!
Pic. Save
---------
As with load, but saves. Before saving you can click on 'Disk
Functions' (lower down in the File menu) and then on 'This File'
- you will then be informed of the size of file if the picture
currently on screen was saved in each of the available formats.
See also 'Double Page'.
Object Load
-----------
These objects are images which can be inserted into an empty
screen or into other pictures. There are three loading bays for
objects - an object does not load directly onto the page, it goes
into memory storage. The difference between 'Object Load' and
'Issue Object' on Menu 3, is that the object which is being Loaded
is one which has previously been saved to disk.
To place the Loaded object on the screen, you must call up the
Menu 3 function 'Issue Object'. Click on the object's box and it
will appear as a free-moving image. Move it into place then left-
click to set it into the picture. Copies can be inserted as many
times as you wish. A copy of the object remains in memory till it
is replaced or the program ends.
Object Save
-----------
This calls up the three-object selector box, but only if an object
has already been read into memory; see 'Read-In Object' in Menu 3.
Until you read-in an object, the Save option is unavailable.
Click on the box for the object you wish to save, after selecting
the format in which it is to be saved.
'Clipboard' format will save to the clipboard file (SCRAP.IMG) in
the Clipboard folder on the program disk, over-writing whatever
was already there. Be careful with this, if you change your mind
and try to cancel the Save, the program will probably crash.
The other formats for saving do not have this problem, and their
files can be saved to any disk, drive or folder.
An object saved in the "Icon" format cannot be loaded back into
Paintshop.
