Screens and Graphics
Using Screen Objects and Animations
Editing
The Editing group provides tools for general screen editing.
SELECTION
Editing group
On the Graphics tab of the ribbon, in the Editing group, click Selection to display a mouse cursor that you can
use to select and move objects on the screen.
DISABLING DRAG IN A SCREEN
You can disable the dragging of objects in the screen editor, to prevent accidental moves after you've layed out
the screen exactly as you want it.
On the Graphics tab of the ribbon, in the Editing group, click Disable Drag.
REPLACING PROJECT TAGS IN A DOCUMENT OR SCREEN OBJECT
To replace all occurences of a tag in the current document, do one of the following:
• On the Home tab of the ribbon, in the Tags group, click Replace; or
• On the Graphics tab of the ribbon, in the Editing group, click Replace.
To replace all occurences of a tag in a screen object, double-click the object to open its Object Properties dialog
and then click Replace.
All of these methods will open the Replace dialog, which is descibed below.
You can replace one or more tags by clicking the Whole Tag Name tab. Current tags used are displayed. The
original tag names are shown in the From column on the left, and you can enter your new tag names in the To
column on the right.
Whole Tag Name tab
Note that this does not rename or delete any tag — it only replaces the tags used in the object with other tags
from the database.
