Moving the Image

There may be times when you need to move the image on the screen to focus in on a specific part of the image. To do this,

1.By default, ProSeek is ready to use the Pan Tool.

2.Move your cursor over the image to be moved, making sure the Pan Tool hand appears over page display. If not, then click the Pan Tool icon from within the Viewer toolbar.

3.Click and hold your left mouse button and drag the cursor to move the image. You'll notice that the cursor of an open hand will change to a close hand/fist when you move the image around the screen.

Copying Text / Text Clipping Tool

ProSeek lets you highlight a portion of the age and copy text to your clipboard for future use.

1.Click the Text Clipping icon on the Title Toolbar in the Viewer. When you move your cursor away from the Text Clipping icon, you will see a cross hair cursor rather than the normal hand cursor. This indicates that the copy function is working.

2.Move the cross hair cursor to a corner of the text you wish to copy.

3.Click and drag the cross hair cursor to the end of the text you wish to copy. NOTE: This is the same procedure you would use to copy text in word processing and other programs. The text you select is highlighted in blue.
