Digital Workshop

Apparently it IS possible to teach an "old dog" new tricks!!!

I read elsewhere on this board about Mac's "Scribbles" (http://www.live.interaktiv.co.uk/index.php?option=com_lyftenbloggie&view=lyftenbloggie&category=0&Itemid=166) which gives quick tips to OPUS users about features. I saw one topic he called "Duplicating" and I discovered OPUS can give you MULTIPLE DUPLICATES. WOW, I've been doing things the hard way for so long. I went back and even v6 had it. I just didn't know about it.

This is incredibly helpful when using MultiFrames. I had been duplicating each Frame -- one at a time. Now, I see I can copy the first Frame which appears (after I change it's name to "Frame (1)") then by simply highlighting the word MultiFrame 1 in the Organizer, I press CTL+M and I can add as many Frames as I need (after changing the Paste Offset to 0).

Thank you Mac (arf arf <-- "that's an old dog barking")

Hi Fred,

Not a problem. I actually discovered, whilst writing the tip that the create table option worked with any type of object having only ever used it for Text Boxes.

@Everybody - I've added a tip email link on our contact form. If you have a useful tip for using Opus that you thing is worth sharing - please do send it.
