The Photo Manager
Once you purchase a GEOS application, use the Photo
Manager to store and handle graphic images created with
geoPaint. Graphic images are stored in special files called
photo albums. Each photo album may contain up to
127
pages of graphic
images. For example, one photo album may contain charts and graphs for a
business proposal; another album may contain illustrations for your
upcom-
ing novel.
The Photo Manager enables you to select graphics from any of the photo
albums and insert them into other GEOS applications, such
as
geowrite.
Photo
Scraps and
Photo
Albums
There is a distinct relationship between the "photo files." Whenever you
cut or copy a picture (graphic image), it is placed into a photo scrap file,
which is a temporary storage file. Photo albums are a means of saving the
image you placed in the photo scrap and turning it into a permanent file.
The Photo Manager allows you to cut and paste images to and from a photo
album.
A
photo album may contain many separate pages. When you need
to place
an
image from a photo album into a document, copy the photo
album contents into a photo scrap and paste the photo scrap contents into
the document.
Remember that the photo scrap is a temporary file; each time you copy an
image into it, that image replaces the current contents of the photo scrap.
The Photo
Album
Screen
Once inside the photo album, use the two items in the command menu, file
and edit (located at the top of the album screen) to work with the images
you copied or moved into the album. To exit to the previous application,
click on the close icon at the top right of the album screen.
At the lower left corner of the album screen is the window indicator, which
consists of two black rectangles: the large rectangle represents the entire
size of the image; the smaller rectangle represents the photo album screen.
To view another part of an image that is too large to fit in the window, click
in the larger rectangle where you would like its top left corner to lie.
