How do I create variable prompts in the title composition screens title text area (e.g., a title prompt)?
[A] Specifying text in the title composition’s title text area as ‘variable’ text in ABLEä 6.0 operates much the same as specifying text as, say, BOLD in a word processing program: select the text that you want to be ‘variable’ using the mouse, then click the right mouse button. You should see a pop-up menu, with an item Variable. Selecting Variable will change any currently selected text to be variable indicated by a light blue color, as seen below. If you wish to remove a variable, you may either: · Select the variable text using the mouse, click the right mouse button, and choose the Normal menu item–the currently selected text should reverted back to normal text (indicated by a black color)–or, · Select the variable text using the mouse, and delete the variable using the delete or backspace key.
