Operation Manual

WorkingwithText 35
Once you’ve created a table, you can select, move, resize, delete, and
copy it as an object, just as you would with a text frame. Other
operations involve selecting text within the table, or parts of the table.
Within each cell, you can click for an insertion point or drag to select a
range of text. You can also drag to select multiple cells, rows, or
columns, which in effect selects all the text in that region. Once you’ve
made a selection, you can edit text in the table and modify the structure
and appearance of the table and/or its components.
Changing the ‘Web colors’
When you stepped through the Wizard to create the sample site we’ve
been working with, you chose one of several alternate color schemes.
In the previous chapter, we used a paint-by-numbers analogy to explain
about the five numbers you can use to mark elements in WebPlus, and
how each scheme includes five colors, which get applied to elements
with the corresponding number.
By convention, body text in Web Wizard publications is marked with
“Scheme Color 1.” That means it takes on whichever color has been
defined as Scheme Color 1 in the current scheme (the first of the five
colors shown at the top of the sample). In addition, each publication’s
color scheme also includes these special Web color settings:
♦ The Hyperlink color applies to hyperlinked text before it’s been
clicked on, while the same text after a Web visitor has clicked to
“follow” the link takes on the Followed Hyperlink color. (The
WebPlus sample displays these colors, but you’ll need to view the
published site in a browser to preview the actual effect.)
