The command Recall button allows you to recall previous or predefined
commands. When you click on the command Recall button, a dialog box
appears that allows you to select a command.
•
Cursor buttons for command line area control. Allow you to move the
cursor in the command line entry area forward or backward, clear to the end of
the command line, or clear the whole command line entry area.
You can choose not to display the command line area by turning it off. For the
most common emulator/analyzer operations, the pulldown menus, pop-up menus,
and action keys provide all the control you need. Choosing menu items that require
use of the command line will automatically turn the command line back on.
Graphical User Interface Conventions
Choosing Menu Commands
This chapter uses a shorthand notation for indicating that you should choose a
particular menu item. For example, the following instruction
Choose File
→
Load
→
Configuration
means to first display the File pulldown menu, then display the Load cascade
menu, then select the Configuration item from the Load cascade menu.
Based on this explanation, the general rule for interpreting this notation can be
stated as follows:
•
The leftmost item in bold is the pulldown menu label.
•
If there are more than two items, then cascade menus are involved and all
items between the first and last item have cascade menus attached.
•
The last item on the right is the actual menu choice to be made.
