Info

OLE objects Note: The use of OLE objects is possible only with the Windows version of TextMaker. With TextMaker for Windows, you can embed objects created with other applications (drawings, pictures, etc.) in your document. An example: From TextMaker, you can use Object > New OLE Object to start Windows’ Paint program and then draw something. When you exit Paint, the drawing appears in the TextMaker document. It is now embedded in the document. Advantage: To edit the drawing in the TextMaker document all you have to do is double click on it – Paint is then restarted automatically. When you have finished editing and closed Paint, your changes are imported by TextMaker. For this to work, the application invoked from TextMaker must support OLE. OLE stands for “Object Linking and Embedding”. The object that is imported from the other application into TextMaker is called an OLE object. In this chapter, you will learn everything you need to know about OLE objects. It covers the following topics: Inserting OLE objects Editing OLE objects Editing links to OLE objects Changing position and size of an OLE object Changing the properties of OLE objects Using the <strong>SoftMaker</strong> Equation Editor See the next pages for details. Inserting OLE objects Note: The use of OLE objects is possible only with the Windows version of TextMaker. Manual TextMaker OLE objects 219
