windows. It includes the following sections:
❑
Window Elements describes the components that comprise
most Annex Manager windows.
❑
Mouse and Keyboard Techniques explains common mouse
operations and corresponding keyboard commands.
❑
Controlling the Window Display provides instructions for
changing a window’s size, moving a window, reducing a
window to an icon, using scroll bars, and using the control
menu.
❑
Using Fields, Buttons, and Boxes describes each type of Annex
Manager field, button, and box, and gives instructions for
selecting and entering information.
After you become familiar with the techniques described here, you will be
able to use Annex Manager easily and efficiently.
This book describes all window conventions for the
Motif™ window manager. If you use another window
manager, the methods you use may vary.
Window Elements
Annex Manager uses Motif™ elements such as title, menu and scroll bars,
list boxes, and help windows. Annex Manager’s main window serves as an
example, since it uses most available elements.
