InterForm Manual - System & Method

G e ting Familiar with Overlay Selectors
®
The following makes use of the demo spool entry delivered with InterForm400 . You can print
this from the menu 12. Service Functions.
Our intention is to make a selector which prints all letters of the spool entry regarding the
InterForm400 modules with the overlay IF400DEMO delivered with this system. For pages
regarding InterForm we want to use the modified version MYDEMO which was created in
section Getting Familiar with Overlays.
Step 1. Placing overlays in One File set
As one selector is limited to operate with overlays from the same file set, we will first make a
copy of the overlay IF400DEMO from fileset SAMPLE into file set TEST. First make sure you
are standing in file set TEST (check upper right corner). If not, you should change file set with
option 8 on the main menu.
Enter option 1. Design Overlays on the main menu

Here we can type in the same name as the overlay in file set SAMPLE. There will be no
conflict of names, as they are located in separate file sets.
