Using Drag and Drop From a Collection
Once you have transferred your pictures into HotShots collections, you can easily
drag and drop them into your documents. (For more information on using
collections, see page 38.)
Dragging and dropping an image into a document works only
with OLE-2.0-compliant applications, such as Microsoft Word,
PowerPoint, WordPerfect, or Lotus SmartSuite. Depending on
how well your application supports OLE 2.0, your images may
not look as good when you drag and drop them as when you
import them.
Follow these steps:
1. Start HotShots.

Get
on the remote control to open the Get menu,
if necessary. Then select
Get from Disk
.

Open a Collection
button. You see the Open
dialog box.

collection name to open it.
