Hey all. I have had the latest edition for a few days now and 1 thing has become perfectly clear to me. I don't know how to use an editor wysiwyg or html. I simply have a hard time with it. The instructions that come with this editor are perfectly acceptable for most people but not me. This is nobody's fault but my own. I have gone from 1 to the other and never really stuck with any one editor. Well that crap is over.Dynamic HTML Editor 1.6 is it. I think that if and when I learn to use it it will be all I will ever really need.My biggest probs are with the label and text functions and also the properties.They are all breezed over to lightly for me. I must go now I have a lot of drawing to do. Joneq [2 77:H]
I have come back to say that I have looked at all the available posts and I feel a little better knowing that I am not alone.I wonder how hard it would be to put one of those ? deals at the top of the editor and when you clicked it and dragged it over to something a window would pop up explaining what it is and how to use it. I am surely not trying to tell anybody how to do what they do but I really like when I see that help feature.
I had some problems with those functions myself until I changed my perceptions of their usage.I use the label function when formatting text that I have already written, possibly in Notepad etc;, and then make a fast label of any size and paste my text to it.Then resize the label, by dragging the sides or corners to position and fit my text.The text function I use when I already have a pre-defined shape, such as a horizontal menu bar, and need to format my text within that pre-defined size. Using the properties box for each element you can position them further, absolutely. Hope this helps you.
Hello joneq, I'm sorry, I well know that my editor become without a valid help but i've no time to do it... I'm developing new features every day... I think my editor is for people that already know HTML language. Maybe in future I'll create an help more powerful!
workin' on it
