1. INSTALLATION
Installation Files This version of the Home
Page installer contains the following files:
- The Claris Home Page 2.0 trial application
- A Clip Art folder
- This Read Me file
- An empty Startup folder. If you would like Home
Page to automatically open a file (such as a
library), place that file, or an alias to it,
in this folder.
- A Tutorial folder
- A "Templates" folder
- A text file version of the Claris Software
License Agreement
When installing from the Claris Home
Page 2.0 CD, extra free space of approximately
5MB is required. This is used as temporary
space during the installation process.
2. TECHNICAL NOTES AND TIPS
A. Find/Change Limitation
Find in Find/Change is limited to 31
characters. A Find for a text string longer
than 31 characters followed by a Replace
replaces only the first 31 characters of that
string.
B. Double-clicking on an HTML File Opens it in
a Browser
Only one application is allowed to be the
default viewer for a given file extension. In
this case, the browser is the default viewer
for HTML files, so it is opened when you click
on an HTML file. To open an HTML file in
Claris Home Page, drag the file itself (not a
shortcut) to the Claris Home Page icon, or
start Claris Home Page directly, and choose
Open from the File menu. You can also change
the association of the file type-see your
Windows documentation for more details.
C. Multiple Browsers can be Opened When a
Page is Previewed
Some browsers will restart each time a page is
previewed and a new copy of the application is
opened. To free memory, close the application
windows not in use.
D. Inserting AVI Files
Insert .AVI files through the Insert Plugin
menu item. AVI files will not show in the
Insert QuickTime movie dialog.
E. Working With Remote Files
If you're exchanging files with a site outside
a network firewall that requires PASV ftp,
you'll need to use a different application to
upload and download files. The save may
appear to work, but will create blank files 0k
in size.
F. QuickTime Movies for Web Pages
QuickTime Movies need to be flattened to play
in web browsers.
G. Crash after inserting a QuickTime movie
Video cards that use Hardware Drivers for
QuickTime may cause a crash with Home Page if
you insert a QuickTime or QuickTime VR movie.
To fix this problem go into the QuickTime
control panel and click "More". Select the
"Video" tab. Under "Current Video Settings"
set "Draw Method" from "Hardware Driver" to
"Video Driver".
H. Resizing Movie Files
Movie files, such as QuickTime VR panorama or
.AVI files insert very small. They must be be
resized manually.
