Writing_Keys

When two or three keys are pressed "simultaneously", they are pressed separately after each other. For instance Ctrl+S for save, Ctrl+Z for regret and Shift+letter for a capital letter (the french ç is got by pressing the key with §).

All changements (except the mentioned exceptions) are saved with the document.

By pressing Enter you go a line down, by Shift+Enter you go one and a half line down.

The text is rolled up and down by scroll (one line) and by PageUp and PageDown (one page - this keys are used when the screen page number and the print page number are to be shown). By Home and End you go to the beginning and the end. By Ctrl+G you go to an entered page number. When F6 is previously pressed (for showing of the dividing lines of the print pages) you go to the corresponding "print page".

When the cursor is set, a press on Insert inserts the copied text (the contain of the file "copie" in the folder "res"). When the cursor is set to the right of a letter and F4 is pressed, the position of the letter can be adjusted by the arrows. By F3 the variant of the letter is replaced by the next. By F8 the script is changed to the next, when you write from this place.

Two cursors are set by left-click and right-click. By key C this passage is copied, by Delete it is deleted. By key U, I or O the passage is underlined with the chosen types of lines (usually single, double and waved, respectively). By F8 the script is changed to the next (from the script of the first letter in the passage). By Ctrl+N is passage is neutralized, that is, the adjustments of the characters are zeroed and the whole passage gets the same script as the first letter. By F5 the passage can be gived another colour (implying that the original nuances are lost): enter or scroll the RGB values of the colour and click outside the numbers.

An underlining is removed by setting two cursors (left/right click) in the word at the same place and pressing Delete (or by deleting the last letter and write it again). A colouring of a passage is removed by setting the cursor in it and press F5.

The position of an underlining can be adjusted in this way: press Ctrl, set the cursor in the underlined passage, press F4 and adjust by the arrows. The effect of the horizontal arrows is aimed at the beginning of the line, and after Shift, at the end. Finish by click in the panel.

By Ctrl+T the colour of the paper can be changed. Enter or scroll new RGB values and click below the numbers. If the colour deviates much from white, the grey edges around the letters can become visible. This can be avoided by colouring the whole text. This is done by Ctrl+Y - text beforehand coloured is not affected by this colouring and it is not saved.

By Ctrl+R you can alter: the dimensions of the paper, the left and right margin (in pc of the width of the page), and the line spacing for the four scripts (in pc of the predefined, which is 1.2 times the height of the textline).

By the arrows in the number keyboard the paper can be displaced on the screen - after Shift in steps of one pixel (the coordinates are saved in a document called "pos").

By Ctrl+M the coloured panel becomes invisible (and conversely), and by Pause the page is minimized.

When the same document is opened in several windows (showing different passages), note that after saving in one window, you must in another window press Ctrl+Z if the alteration is to be shown in this version of the document.

By Ctrl+F the window is closed a monent and the background (a picture or another document on the desktop) is read, and the paper is hereafter made transparent (the effect is removed again by Ctlr+F).

By Ctrl+B a picture to be used as writing background is read. The picture is chosen from the list that is shown when the program "Papiers" is started. You edit is this list in the same way as in "Calligraphie" and "Ecritures". The picture (in BMP format) is given a name consisting of small letter and figures and is put in the folder "res". The width of the page is then the changed to the width of the picture (which should be about 600-1200 pixels). The picture repeats itself throughout the text (is can be prepared with the program "Perp" so that the repetition becomes continuous). The paper is removed again by Ctrl+B.

The vertical placing of the text on the page can be fine-adjusted within a line spacing by placing the cursor at the very left side of the pape and scroll (this changement is not saved).
