Pages
The Pages panel allows you to create multipage documents.
Panel Buttons
Button functions:
- adds a page
- deletes a page
- shows the table of contents
- copies a page to the clipboard
- pastes a page from the clipboard
- inserts a print report
- moves a page up
- moves a page down
- opens the Pages panel settings
Creating a Page Copy
By pressing buttons 4 and 5 in succession, you can create a copy of a page. You can also copy a page to another document.
Page Display Mode
In the Pages panel, you can use button no. 9 to choose one of four page display modes:
- page sequence number
- short page name (the mode used in previous versions)
- sequence number, period and page name
- custom text using variables
Write variable names between curly braces { and }.
This setting is saved separately for each document. If the original mode suits you, there is no need to change anything in existing documents. The new, more descriptive display mode can also be used for existing documents – but it must be set manually.
Where to Enter Page Variable Values
Double-click the page name to display a dialog box where, on the "Variables" tab, you set the "short page name", "page name" and page variables.
Page Variables for Print Reports
When you insert a print report into the project using button 6, the program automatically sets these two variables:
- name – the name of the print report, e.g. "Bill of Materials" or "List of Wires"
- short name – a three-letter code according to the following table:
| code | report name |
|---|---|
| BOM | bill of materials |
| LOC | list of cables |
| LOT | list of terminals |
| LOP | list of pages |
| LOW | list of wires |
Where to Enter Title Block Data:
| data common for all pages (e.g. author, company etc.) | data for a particular page (e.g. title, supplementary title) |
|---|---|
| F12 – Document – Variables | in the Pages panel, double-click the page name |
