Subject: Re: scrollable bitmaps

I had to place a bitmap of a button into a scrollable text field (to explain what the button did), and here's how I did (with much help from this list):

  1. Import your bitmap into ToolBook as you would any bitmap (i.e. via the clip editor).
  2. To put the image into a scrollable field, position the cursor in the field where you want the graphic to go, and then under the Text command, select Insert Graphic. You'll be prompted to identify the bitmap you want, and once selectedit should be inserted into the text box. Once in, it should scroll...

Make the page size the same as the graphic, set the viewer size to the size you want the window to be, and make sure you set the scrolling property of the viewer to true.
