Open | F5 |
The focus is on the stack-list and it can be
opened (with double/single- Click
or Enter) an existing
stack. |
Open temporary | Alt+F5 |
it can open a stack outside of your own system (e.g.
from the backups) to copy before there's a note on one of the stacks (F10
or F11). |
Save |
Alt+F2 |
Saves the stack. The corresponding
icon is grayed out again. Then he is no longer restore with
Alt+F3. |
Save as | Shift+F2 |
Saves the current stack under another name. For the name of the stacks, certain rules apply and
not all characters are allowed and will be removed automatically. They
must also not contain Spaces. |
Reload | Alt+F3 |
Changes to the active stack are discarded and the last saved from disk is reloaded. Of
course only as long as the stack has not been saved or another one loaded
! |
Settings | AltGr+O | The settings and
options can be
made. |
Save settings | AltGr+S |
The settings can be saved under any
name (*.set). |
Load settings |
From these files (*.set) in the program directory either all or only one of the 5 areas can be loaded:
However, the tab "Global" always remains and the lower part of the "Environment" tab unconsidered ! This is particularly useful when you need different
settings for different jobs. They can be loaded at any time during
Info-Base
is running. | |
AltGr+P | The current note or a group is
printed. The text automatically wraps to the page width (A4). A short
title can be given for the printout.
TABs are only up to 18 per line visible and when they are
needed in line with each other, lead to small
shifts. | |
Printer setup | The System dialog
appears. | |
Start batch | AltGr+B |
The IBbat is a small
utility program for the Info-Base for various file operations that run in
a separate task in the background. It must be in the Info-Base
directory.
After starting one of the options (Copy, Move or Delete) is to be selected and "Exit" becomes "Abort". "Abort" can be used to interrupt the process, but it must be noted that the current process must be completed using a file. This may take a little longer when copying and moving large files. Deleting is very quick. The files in the list are only copied if they are newer or nonexistent. Of course, only files that exist can be deleted. Particular caution is required when deleting. Both the source files and the target files can be deleted. The program is only automatically closed, the list is deleted
and a backup copy (IBbat.bak) is created only if all the files in the list have been
processed. The file IBbat.ubi (list) can be
edited in the batch editor . |
Files to batch | Shift+F5 |
All linked files of a note or a "group" (F9) are written into a file IBbat.ubi . This can later be processed by an external program (IBbat.exe) in a separate task. Attention: Files that are not linked on the note but are still included (e.g. subtitles) must be entered manually into the list. It is advisable to check the respective stack beforehand with Shift+F11 ! If a file link is faulty or the source file does not exist, the process is aborted with an error message. Then the entries in the batch editor should be checked. Single linked files can be written by AltGr+Click into this file and later edited as desired. The linked files can be copied with the whole
directory structure of the source or only as a file. |
Holtkeys |
Most hotkeys can be changed. It is not checked whether a hotkey is already
taken. However, certain keys cannot be entered (BkSp,
Enter, Del, Esc). Combinations with F1 often cause
difficulties or have an annoying delay, with the exception of
Alt+F1 and Shift+Alt+F1 . Likewise, some global key
combinations may not work here. Of course, existing keyboard macros have to be adapted to the changes as well ! Attention: With
updates from
Info-Base can come to problems when the menus or
hotkeys something has changed. | |
Hotkeys to a note | Creates a simple list of hotkeys in
the active stack. The changed
hotkeys marks
with a "--->" and parentheses in the default value. | |
Maximize / minimize | AltGr+V |
It can be toggled with AltGr+V as
well as with a Click on the title bar. The division
(only the two horizontal sliders !) of the maximized screen can be changed and will be
saved, if in the menu View "Safe positions +
sizes" is activated. |
Exit | Alt+X | Info-Base is closed and everything backed up automatically so
that you can close the program directly from
a note. |
