SCT Banner Financial Aid / Release Guide / 7.0

Section 3 New User Interface - Functional
Miscellaneous Enhancements
Banner Bookshelf button removed
The Banner Bookshelf button has been removed from the toolbar. Enhancements to
the Adobe Reader ® search feature only work when files are launched within the
Reader application, and not when Reader is launched within a browser window.
Maximum performance of search and index features is achieved by setting up a
shortcut on your desktop to where the Bookshelf file is located at your institution.
To create a shortcut to the Banner Bookshelf on your desktop:
1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. Browse to the location where the Bookshelf directory is stored at your
institution (bdoc5x, bdoc6x, or bdoc7x, depending upon the version of Banner
you are using).
3. Right click bkshlfxx.pdf and choose Create Shortcut.
4. Drag the shortcut to your desktop.
5. (Optional) Rename it.
Change to keystroke behavior of pull-down item lists
To expand a pull-down menu so that it displays all available list items at once, use
the Alt and Down arrow keys simultaneously. Once the list is expanded, you can
scroll through the list using the Up and Down arrow keys (in previous versions of
Oracle Forms, the Down arrow key expanded the list).
Tip: You can use the arrow keys to scroll through the items one at a time regardless
of whether the list is expanded.
Color of Disabled Text
As delivered, disabled text is black (the same as regular text), but you can change it
to any color you'd like. For more information, please refer to the Oracle Developer for
SCT Banner Implementation Guide.
