By default, button labels appear below the button symbols. To move the labels above the symbols, select the
Swap Label Pos
button. Selecting the
Swap Label Pos
button again will restore the original layout.
If you are using the scanning input method with audio feedback, you can also use the
Advanced
tab to set
the audio cue that will be spoken as each row on the page is highlighted. By default, Palmtop will say "Row
1", "Row 2", … as you scan through the rows. To change this, select the row from the
This Row
drop-down
menu, then enter the new description in the
Row Description
box. Remember that audio scanning must be
activated through the
Audio Feedback
option of the
Scanning
dialog (see section 4.7).
You can restore page colors and scanning descriptions to their default values by selecting the
Use Defaults
button.
By default, a button that has a secondary action (see section 4.19.2) will include a small arrow in a box in
the upper corner of the button. This graphic is designed to remind the user of the button's secondary action.
For some users, however, the arrows may be distracting or confusing. The arrows can be disabled by
checking the
Hide Arrows
check box.
4.20. Symbol Selection Dialog
Invoked from the
Labels
tab of the
Button Properties
dialog, the
Symbol Selection
dialog provides a
convenient method for previewing and selecting an image for buttons. The Palmtop device and PC Editor
ship with over 8800 Mayer-Johnson PCS symbols already installed. However, if you are working with the PC
Demo, you will only have access to a sample set of 150 Mayer-Johnson images.
Figure 31: The Symbol Selection Dialog
The viewport in the
Symbol Selection
dialog lets you explore the various symbol categories. Select the folder
in the viewport to open that folder and see the symbols that it contains. To preview a symbol, select its name
in the symbol viewport. The text box below the symbol viewport shows the folder to which the preview
symbol belongs. If you are using an external keyboard with your Palmtop device (or the PC Editor software
on your Windows computer), you can use the keyboard arrow keys to quickly step through previews of the
symbols. Select the
OK
button to select the previewed symbol and exit the
Symbol Selection
dialog. You
can also double-select a symbol name to select that symbol and close the dialog.
The
Symbol Selection
dialog also has a search feature that allows you to type in the name or partial name of
the symbol that you are looking for. Type the word or string in the
Search
box and then select the
Search
button. The symbol search engine will identify all of the matching symbols or categories and display the
results in the viewport on the left. Select the
Browse
button to return to browsing the entire symbol library.
