| 13 | This section describes how to create a new collection.
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | To create a new collection, open the "File" menu and choose "New". Several
|
|---|
| 17 | fields need to be filled out -- but you can change their values later if you
|
|---|
| 18 | need to, in the design view.
|
|---|
| 19 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 20 | "Collection title" is the text displayed at the top of your collection's home page. It can
|
|---|
| 21 | be any length.
|
|---|
| 22 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 23 | "Description of content"
|
|---|
| 24 | should describe, in as much detail as possible, what the collection is about.
|
|---|
| 25 | Use the [Enter] key to break it into paragraphs.
|
|---|
| 26 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 27 | Finally you must specify whether the new collection will have the same
|
|---|
| 28 | appearance and metadata sets as an existing collection, or whether to start a
|
|---|
| 29 | default "New Collection".
|
|---|
| 30 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 31 | Click "OK" to create the collection. If you chose "New Collection" you are
|
|---|
| 32 | prompted for the metadata sets to use in it. You can choose more than one, and
|
|---|
| 33 | you can add others later.
|
|---|
| 34 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 35 | Clicking "Cancel" returns you to the main screen immediately.
|
|---|
| 36 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 37 |
|
|---|
| 38 | Buttons, like menus, have one character underlined. To "click" the button,
|
|---|
| 39 | press [ALT] and the underlined character at the same time.
