| 98 | To create a new collection, open the "File" menu and choose "New". Several
|
|---|
| 99 | fields need to be filled out -- but you can change their values later if you
|
|---|
| 100 | need to, in the design view.
|
|---|
| 101 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 102 | "Title" is the text displayed at the top of your collection's home page. It can
|
|---|
| 103 | be any length.
|
|---|
| 104 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 105 | "Short Name" is the collection's filename. It must be unique.
|
|---|
| 106 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 107 | "Author's Email" should be a valid email address.
|
|---|
| 108 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 109 | "Description of content"
|
|---|
| 110 | should describe, in as much detail as possible, what the collection is about.
|
|---|
| 111 | Use the [Enter] key to break it into paragraphs.
|
|---|
| 112 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 113 | Finally you must specify whether the new collection will have the same
|
|---|
| 114 | appearance and metadata sets as an existing collection, or whether to start a
|
|---|
| 115 | default "New Collection".
|
|---|
| 116 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 117 | Click "OK" to create the collection. If you chose "New Collection" you are
|
|---|
| 118 | prompted for the metadata sets to use in it. You can choose more than one, and
|
|---|
| 119 | you can add others later.
|
|---|
| 120 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 121 | Clicking "Cancel" returns you to the main screen immediately.

|

| 125 | Buttons, like menus, have one character underlined. To "click" the button,
|
|---|
| 126 | press [ALT] and the underlined character at the same time.
