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

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