Tutorial 1 — Load and Fill a Form
Tutorials - 25
OmniForm switches to design view. Any text you entered in fill view
disappears in design view. It still exists in fill view.
There are four toolbars in design view: the standard toolbar (different in
design view than in fill view), the font/text toolbar, the drawing toolbar,
and the arrange toolbar.
• Use the standard toolbar for basic file operations such as saving
and printing, and for working with objects.
• Use the font/text toolbar to format characters and paragraphs.
• Use the drawing toolbar to create objects: circles, tables, text, etc.
• Use the arrange toolbar to arrange and align objects on a form.
(Design view also contains the calculation toolbar which appears when
you choose
Calculation
in the Tools menu. See Chapter 9, Using
Calculations, for more information.)
