Enhancement - Performing Multiple Operations |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: Enhancement: A user requested that WordPerfect 5.1 include the capability of performing multiple operations on a block of text. Answer: Although WordPerfect does not have a specific feature for this, the Go To (Ctrl-Home) feature can be used since it can be used to go directly to a specified page number, to the top of the current page, or to the previous cursor position. Users can go to the previous cursor position while using certain features, including Block. If users press Go To twice after using Block, the cursor is placed at the other side of the previously highlighted text. By turning Block on before pressing Go To twice, the same text will be highlighted again for additional operations. For example, if users block an area of text and then press Bold (F6), the text is no longer highlighted. To underline the same text, press Block and Go To (Ctrl-Home) twice, then press Underline (F8). To further automate this process, users can easily create a macro that will block the previous text for a second operation by using the following functions: (Alt-F4, Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-Home). If users assign this macro to the Alt-B keystroke combination, they could reblock text very quickly. |
