     4 - COMMAND SUMMARY
     ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

     Commands  for PC-KEY-DRAW are divided into
     two primary types. Type 1 are  those  that
     can  be issued in the CURSOR MODE (anytime
     the cursor  can  be  moved  about  on  the
     screen)  and  type 2 are the commands that
     are called from within a particular  func-
     tion. Basically type 1 commands pertain to
     general operation, while type  2  commands
     pertain  to  a  specific drawing function.
     The help file in PC-KEY-DRAW and the  Com-
     mand  Summary  sheet  (available from OED-
     WARE) are similar to the contents of  this
     chapter, which is arranged by command. The
     first part  of  this  chapter  provides  a
     SHORT FORM look at the commands, while the
     second part expands the look at  the  com-
     mands with a LONG FORM. The LONG FORM also
     includes numerous small examples  to  help
     illustrate the various commands. See Chap-
     ter 10 DEFINITIONS & INFORMATION for addi-
     tional detail of the commands.

  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-2






















                     LONG FORM

     The  following section contains additional
     details on operating the various  commands
     of  PC-KEY-DRAW. It also contains numerous
     specific examples which are written in the
     form  they  would appear if saved as a key
     macro, translated  with  KD-TRANS.EXE  and
     viewed with a standard text editor. Unless
     otherwise stated, the macros presented all
     start in the CURSOR MODE. For example

         HOME      |1

         means hit the <HOME> key 1 time or
                           [rect]
         F2        |1
         r         |1
         PGDN      |10
         ENTER     |2


     means  hit  Function key #1 (<F1>) 1 time,
     then hit a lowercase <r>, then the  <PgDn>
     key  10  times,  and  then the <ENTER> key
     twice. Following this sequence will draw a
     square on the screen.

     Some   prompts   must  be  completed  with
     <ENTER>, such as "Enter  background  <0-3>
     [0]". In reading macro samples the <ENTER>
     will not appear as a command since  it  is
     part  of the input. Any prompt that starts
     with the word "Enter" must be concluded by
     an  <ENTER>  from  the  user. "File Name"s
     must also be concluded with <ENTER>.

     While most commands relate to a single key
     stroke  per  macro line, many require mul-
     tiple key strokes as when text is  entered
     or  a  file  name  is  entered. Such lines
     appear as follows:

                            COMMAND SUMMARY 4-3






















      ***TEXT***|This is text|1
      ***TEXT***|135|1
      ***TEXT***|B:GIRL.SCN|1

  Do  not  enter  "***TEXT***"  or  the "|",
  enter only the text between the  two  bars
  "|".  In  some  places  in  the manual the
  untranslated form will  be  used  to  save
  space, such as:

      *|1

      is equivalent to

      *         |1

  The  short hand form will only be used for
  key strokes that are  easy  to  understand
  without translation.

  For  additional  examples  and  an  aid to
  learning, try translating some of the many
  macros  supplied  on the different library
  disks. After translating a macro,  it  can
  be  easily  view  and printed using a text
  editor. Use the printed macros as samples,
  just like the ones in this manual. Many of
  the  macrso  supplied   with   PC-KEY-DRAW
  include   remark  statements.  The  remark
  statements are added by a text editor  and
  do  not effect the operation of the macro,
  but  serve  to  explain  what  a   macro's
  intended  use is or might be.  The remarks
  also serve to inform the user on what  the
  conditions  should  be  before calling the
  macro, such as  "Operate from Medium reso-
  lution"  or  "Copy  object to be overlayed
  first before  calling  macro".  Beware  of
  remarks  that  start with "E" or "e" since
  this may confuse the macro  into  thinking
  that  the  number of repeats for the given
  key sequence is in scientific notation.

  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-4






















     Cursor Mode
     ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

     Cursor keys <1-9> move  cursor  around  on
         screen at speed set by <F9> or <+> and
         <->.

     Shft-Cursor Keys <Shft>-<1-9>  use  during
         drawing  of circles, rectangles, poly-
         gons, ellipses and several  others  to
         adjust   the  starting  point  of  the
         object being drawn. For  example  when
         drawing   a  circle  the  Cursor  Keys
         adjust the size of  circle  while  the
         Shft-Cursor   Keys   move  the  circle
         around on the screen. With a rectangle
         the  Cursor keys move one corner while
         the Shft-Cursor keys move the opposite
         corner.

     <Ctrl-Right Arrow> jumps the cursor to the
         right to the next grid point,  whether
         the  grid  is visible or not. The grid
         point is set by calling <g>, <Ctrl-g>,
         or <Alt-g>.

     <Ctrl-Left  Arrow> jumps the cursor to the
         left to the next grid  point,  whether
         the  grid  is visible or not. The grid
         point is set by calling <g>, <Ctrl-g>,
         or <Alt-g>.












                            COMMAND SUMMARY 4-5






















  <Ctrl-Home> sets the display to  SCreen  1
      if  screen is not 1. Allows panning or
      paging through  pages  and  layers  if
      screen is already set to 1.
      <?>,  <h>, or <H> displays full map of
      8X8 PAGE grid and shows current  loca-
      tion on that grid.
      <Home>  sets  SCreen  1  to PaGe 00 or
      layer 0
      <Ctrl-Home>  returns  to  PaGe  00  or
      layer  0 without saving screen you are
      currently on.
      <End> sets SCreen 1 to  last  page  or
      layer created.
      <PgUp>  moves through pages and layers
      one page/layer up.
      <PgDn> moves through pages and  layers
      one page/layer down.
      <Cursor  keys> Pan in page mode by 1/2
      screen.

  <Ctrl-End> sets  screen  to  SCreen  2  no
      matter  what  the  screen  is to begin
      with. SCreen 2 is used for the  visual
      layer when layers are active. SCreen 2
      is ideal for a  temporary  work  space
      when layers are not in use.

  <Ctrl-PgUp>   Moves  up  through  screens.
      SCreen 1 is the top screen.

  <Ctrl-PgDn> Moves  down  through  screens.
      Screen  F7  is  below SCreen 2. SCreen
      Title is below SCreen F7.

  <Esc>   Stops   current   operation    and
      refreshes screen to what it was before
      the last action was started.





  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-6






















     <Shft-Tab>  Switches  between   high   and
         medium  resolution.  Use  <Ctrl-r>  to
         switch to high resolution. The current
         drawing  mode  will  be  saved  as the
         default  mode  if   <Ctrl-s>tatus   is
         selected  and saved. Currently PC-KEY-
         DRAW works only in  the  CGA  graphics
         modes  of  320X200  with  four  colors
         (medium resolution - color) or 640X200
         with   two   colors  (high  resolution
         -black and  white).  These  modes  are
         readily  distinguished  by the size of
         the text used in the prompt  line  and
         menus.  The  color mode uses 40 column
         text, while the b&w mode uses 80  col-
         umn  text. The 80 column text provides
         additional information on  the  prompt
         line,with more information at one time
         then is possible with  the  40  column
         mode. Which mode you choose depends on
         what you are creating.

     <ENTER> The Enter/Return key  is  used  to
         complete  functions, mark points, take
         default values. The first mouse button
         is  used  as  the  <ENTER> key. During
         line drawing the <ENTER> key  is  used
         to  mark  line end points and continue
         drawing.  References  to  marking   or
         ending  usually  refer  to  using  the
         <ENTER> key.

     <Space Bar> brings up the Function  selec-
         tion  menu  if  no  functions are cur-
         rently active. <Space Bar>  is  active
         during line drawing with <F6 l> or <F6
         c> to temporarily suspend line drawing
         and display the cursor.





                            COMMAND SUMMARY 4-7






















  <Backspace> provides the ability to backup
      while   entering  the  points  of  <F6
      l>ine, <F6 p>arallel, <F6 s>poke,  and
      <F3-b>-spline  to correct a mistake or
      change of mind.   After  using  <Back-
      space>   during  <F6>  operation,  the
      screen  is  refreshed  an   the   line
      redrawn up to the last point.

  <$>  Sets  screen aspect ratio. The aspect
      ratio is the ratio between  the  hori-
      zontal  pixels and vertical pixels. An
      aspect ratio of 1.0 in color or 2.0 in
      high  resolution  gives  good results.
      Adjust the screen ratio as desired  to
      display  circles  as  circles  and not
      ellipses. You may  want  to  match  to
      your   printer   rather  than  to  the
      screen. The screen  aspect  ratio  can
      also be varied as desired for a number
      effects, ie. adjusting spray paint  or
      rotating in an ellipse.

  <+>  increases cursor step by one. The new
      cursor step is  retained  and  can  be
      toggled  with  <F9>.  The  cursor step
      number not only effects the  speed  of
      the  cursor, but the steps in a cursor
      rotation,  the  number  of  lines   to
      insert     or    delete,    and    the
      mouse/joystick speed.

  <-> decreases cursor step by one. The  new
      cursor  step  is  retained  and can be
      toggled with <F9>.

  <_> cursor wrap toggle.  When  PC-KEY-DRAW
      is run it will be have cursor wrap on,
      so that if the cursor is moved off the
      edge of the screen it will wrap to the
      other side.  Use <_>  to  turn  cursor
      wrap off.

  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-8






















     <(>  shifts entire display to the left for
         use with graphics boards that need  to
         be centered.

     <)>  shifts  entire  display to the right.
         Use <(> and  <)>  with  some  graphics
         cards to properly center screen.

     <[> rotates the cursor about the last mea-
         sure point in steps set by <F9>  in  a
         counter-clockwise direction.

     <]> rotates the cursor about the last mea-
         sure point in steps set by <F9>  in  a
         clockwise direction.

     <{>  rotates cursor counterclockwise in 90
         degree increments.

     <}> rotates cursor clockwise in 90  degree
         increments.

     To  gain a better feel for cursor rotation
         try this:

         SHFT-F9  |1
         +        |5
         F6       |1
         l        |1
         RIGHT    |5
         ]        |20
         [        |20
         Try the above with  rectangles,  poly-
         gons, and animated or smeared objects.

     </> works the same as <Space Bar>

     <?>  displays help information. Works like
         <H>.




                            COMMAND SUMMARY 4-9






















  <*>  toggles prompt line display for play-
      back. When writing macros that will be
      used  as  slide  shows  or demos it is
      often desirable to turn of the  prompt
      line  and  the cursor. Use <*> once to
      turn off the prompt line and twice  to
      also  turn  off  the  cursor. *|3 will
      stop circles and rectangles from  dis-
      playing  as  they are sized, while *|4
      in a macro will stop the double redraw
      of  lines for greater speed. It may be
      best to add the  appropriate  line  to
      the  macro  after it is written, since
      seeing the prompt and cursor  can  aid
      in  debugging.  The  macros  will  run
      faster the higher the star value use.

  <Alt-1> jumps cursor to 0,0 (top left cor-
      ner).

  <Alt-0 to Alt-9> jumps to the screen posi-
      tion previously assigned to that  key.
      These   must  first  be  defined  with
      <Ctrl-j>, which will  create  a  small
      file  KD-DRAW.JMP. If a particular key
      is not assigned the cursor  will  jump
      to 0,0.

      To illustrate jumping, move the cursor
      to some location  on  the  screen  and
      perform the following:

      CTRL-j    |1
      ALT-3     |1
      now move to some other location on the
      screen and then:
      ALT-3     |1

      and the cursor will be instantly  back
      to the marked point.



  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-10






















     <5>  displays  color  value that cursor is
         over. This lets you  know  what  color
         you  are  over when working on a black
         and white screen in the color mode  of
         the program.

     <B>  sets background value. The background
         value is used for a  number  of  func-
         tions,  including  removing  the lines
         during rubberbanding of  circle,  box,
         polygon.  The  current  setting of the
         background is displayed in  column  40
         of  the  prompt  line.  Reverse  video
         operations change the setting  of  the
         background  value. <Alt-F10> also sets
         the color of the background.  Normally
         the  background  color  is  set to the
         predominate color of screen, but there
         are many times when it is desirable to
         set it to another value. Try this:

         SHFT-F9  |1     [poly]
         +        |5
         B        |1
         0        |1
         F2       |1
         p        |1
         3        |1
         RIGHT    |5
         ]        |20
         [        |20
         B        |1
         1        |1
         ]        |18

         At this point an  interesting  pattern
         will  be  displayed  on the screen. If
         it is desired to keep that pattern hit
         <k>eep then continue otherwise hitting
         <ENTER> will replace the screen as  it
         was  and draw the polygon in its final
         position.

                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-11






















  <C>  switches  cursor  to last center of a
      circle or centers animated area  hori-
      zontally on screen.

  <Alt-c>   toggles   through  three  cursor
      types. A double dot,  arrow,  or  full
      screen   cross  hairs  are  available.
      Which cursor you use depends  on  what
      you prefer and will vary with the type
      of drawing you are  working  on.  Your
      favorite  cursor  type can be saved as
      the default from the Status Screen.

  <Alt-d> displays the DOS date at the  spe-
      cified  screen  location. The time can
      be  displayed  on  the   screen   with
      <Alt-t>.  Time  and  date  display are
      provided for the terminal clock watch-
      ers and for use in slide shows.
























  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-12






















         [work3]












     Figure  4-3  Screen  with  help  menu  and
         <Ctrl-g>rid turned on.


     <g> sets grid to display as dots. You must
         specify the spacing of the grid in the
         units of the  scale  being  used.  <g>
         will  also  turn the grid off if it is
         on as dots of lines. The current color
         set  by <F10> will be used as the grid
         color, until the grid is turned off.

     <Ctrl-g> sets a line grid  that  is  XORed
         with the screen and thus does not hide
         some lines as <Alt-g> can.

     <Alt-g> sets grid to display as lines. Use
         <g>  to turn it off. The current color
         set by <F10> will be used as the  grid
         color, until the grid is turned off.










                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-13






















  <h> selects help  menus.  The  first  time
      brings  in  the  menu  in the top left
      corner of the screen (if  it  is  cur-
      rently  off).  Selecting  it  a second
      time displays the help  file  for  the
      CURSOR  MODE. See <H> and <?> for more
      information.

  <H> toggles help menus as above  or  turns
      off the menu if it is on. <H>elp works
      the same as  <?>.  See  also  <h>  for
      more information.

  <i>  toggles  isometric  drawing mode. The
      isometric mode changes the cursor  key
      movements so that instead of moving at
      45 degree angles the cursor  moves  at
      30  and  60 degree angles. A lowercase
      "i" will appear  on  the  prompt  line
      when  in isometric mode. In the Status
      Screen a 1 indicates that the  isomet-
      ric  mode  is off, while a 2 means the
      mode is on.  The  Status  Screen  also
      allows  the  user  to  specify  valves
      greater than 2 for aiding in some spe-
      cial effects.

  <Ctrl-j>   or  <Ctrl-ENTER>  allow  screen
      positions to be set and remembered and
      assigned  to  <Alt-0  thru Alt-9>. KD-
      DRAW.JMP will  be  created  the  first
      time  this  function  is  called.  See
      instructions  above  on  <Alt-0   thru
      Alt-9> commands for a sample.









  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-14






















     <k>  keeps the screen in memory as it cur-
         rently appears. Use  this  with  func-
         tions like <F7 a>nimate and <F7 s>mear
         and with functions like  <F2  r>ectan-
         gle,  <F3  c>ircle,  and  <F2 p>olygon
         when the <B>ackground color is set  to
         something other than the background of
         the screen. See the above example  for
         <B>ackground.

     <Alt-k>  activates  key  macro  for <r>un,
         <c>reate, or <e>nd. See Key Macro  for
         details  on  operation. Both <r>un and
         <c>reate will ask for a file  name  to
         use.  Entering  a  single drive letter
         only will display  the  files  on  the
         drive   with   appropriate  extension.
         <f>unction can be used to set the  HOT
         key  file used for assigning the func-
         tion keys used with  <Shift>,  <Ctrl>,
         and <Alt>.

     <l>  turns display of visual layers on and
         off. Once layers are on they can  only
         be turned off completely with <Alt-l>.

     <L>  sets  active  and  visual  layers  as
         desired by the layer numbers.

     <Ctrl-l> combines SCreen 1 with the visual
         layers  of  SCreen  2  to create a new
         visual layer  and  starts  next  layer
         with  a fresh screen in SCreen 1. This
         is the primary method of  initializing
         the use of layers.

     <Alt-l>  turns  layers  off and pages back
         on. This differs from <l> which simply
         stops  displaying  the  visual  layers
         when turned off.



                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-15






















  <m>  mark  measure point. Measure read out
      on prompt line is set to zero. Use  at
      any  time.  Some  functions  will  set
      <m>ark measure for their own use. When
      drawing a circle the measured distance
      is the radius, while  drawing  a  line
      the measured distance is the length of
      the line.

  <M> switches cursor to last marked  point.
      Some  operations will mark a point for
      measure, such as <F2 r>  and  <F3  c>.
      <M>   works  like  the  jump  commands
      <Alt-0 thru Alt-9> only the setting of
      the measure point is only temporary.

  <Alt-m>  sets  screen scale based on meas-
      ured distance. Use <m> first. The fol-
      lowing illustrates how <m> and <Alt-m>
      can be used to set the scale based  on
      the screen image.

      The  scale  is  now  set  so  that the
      circle on the screen has a  radius  of
      10  units,  be  they  feet, inches, or
      meters is up to you.







  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-16






















     <Ctrl-p> plays music using the BASICA PLAY
         statement syntax. For use primarily in
         macros or when you just want to  sere-
         nade yourself and co-workers. See your
         BASICA manual for details on using the
         play command.

     <Alt-p>  sets pause length for macro play-
         back in seconds. <Alt-p> has no effect
         except in a macro playback.

     <Q>   controls  cursor  movement  quality.
         Quality  off  allows  faster   motion.
         Quality on ensures equal cursor steps.
         Key macro automatically  sets  quality
         on.  Do  not turn the quality off in a
         macro since cursor movement  will  not
         be   faithfully   recorded.  <Q>uality
         significantly effects movement with  a
         mouse of joystick.

     <Alt-q> toggles the display of cursor coor-
         dinates on the prompt  line.  Use  the
         coordinates  to aid drafting or layout
         operations and turn of the coordinates
         in free form drawing for faster cursor
         response.

     <R> Refresh the screen with  current  pic-
         ture.

     <Ctrl-r> forces the screen to high resolu-
         tion mode. Use  in  macros  that  must
         start  in  high resolution. <Shft-Tab>
         toggles between high and medium  reso-
         lution.  High  resolution  is  640X200
         with 2 colors, while medium resolution
         is  320X200 with 4 colors. Which reso-
         lution used depends  on  final  output
         desired.



                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-17






















  <s> Show only active screen, without  cur-
      sor  or prompt line, useful for taking
      slides from screen. During macro  play
      back  the macro will stop and wait for
      any key to be hit.

  <S> Same as <s>, but shows both active and
      visual layers.

  <Ctrl-s>  Switch  to the Status/Configura-
      tion Screen. A  number  of  parameters
      can  be set and kept as the default to
      be used by the program each  time  the
      program  is  run.  This  is  the  same
      screen that  is  displayed  the  first
      time  the  program is run or when ever
      KD-DRAW.DFT is removed from the disk.

  <Alt-t> displays the current time  on  the
      screen   at  the  specified  position.
      Useful for macros  that  will  be  run
      continuously  in a show or store envi-
      ronment. Also great for those who like
      to watch the clock or time a macro.

  <u> updates workspace #1 and declares that
      current screen is SCreen 1. The previ-
      ous contents of SCreen 1 will be lost.
      Retrieve with <F8 w>.

  <U> updates workspace #2 and declares that
      current screen is SCreen 2. The Previ-
      ous contents of SCreen 2 will be lost.
      Retrieve with <F8 W>.









  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-18






















     <v>  video  reverse  of currently animated
         object. The item is put on the  screen
         in  reverse video, grabbed, and anima-
         tion   continues   with   the   colors
         reversed, ie. color 0 becomes color 3,
         color  1  becomes  color  2,  color  2
         becomes  color  1, and color 3 becomes
         color 1.

     <Alt-v> sets  visual  horizon  of  screen.
         This   is  the  point  where  animated
         objects  will  disappear  when   moved
         below  the set level. The visual hori-
         zon setting is provided primarily  for
         special effects during macro playback.

     <w>  sets line width from 1 to 32. <w>idth
         also controls the  width  of  circles,
         rectangles,   polygons   and  b-spline
         curves. Width can be set greater  than
         32  for  circles,  polygons, b-spline,
         and  rectangles.  SCNSHOW.MCR  uses  a
         very  large  width setting with circle
         to fade out  the  screen  showing  the
         girl and the sheep in the meadow.

     <x>  allows direct coordinate entry. Enter
         the scaled x and  y  coordinates.  The
         cursor  will  jump  to  the new point.
         <x> can be very useful in macros  that
         you  want to start at a specific loca-
         tion each time it runs.

     <Ctrl-x> sets the current cursor  location
         as  the screen's 0,0 point. The normal
         screen origin is the top left  corner.
         <Ctrl-x>  provides the means to set as
         desired. This is  particularly  useful
         in  mechanical and architectural draw-
         ing.

  F1  Modification
  ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

  <r>  allows  rotation about a point in the
      plane of the screen. First select cen-
      ter  of  rotation, next define object.
      Follow prompts.  *C*-<r>  will  rotate
      only  the current color as selected by
      <F10>. Try the following:

      F2        |1    [rotb]
      ALT-r     |1
      PGDN      |5
      ENTER     |2

      y         |1
      ***TEXT***|10|1
      ***TEXT***|36|1
      ENTER     |1


  <Ctrl-r> rotates left half  of  screen  90
      degrees. Part of the right side of the
      screen may be lost so you may want  to
      store the screen first.

  <Alt-r>  to  rotate all three colors of an
      object. <Alt-r> is used  exactly  like
      <r>.  In  high  resolution there is no
      difference between <Alt-r> and <r>.

      A screen aspect ratio of 1.0 in medium
      resolution  or  2.0 in high resolution
      provides the cleanest rotation,  while
      other  aspect  ratios  can be used for
      interesting  effects.   Rotation   can

  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-20






















         either  be  used to replace the object
         with the rotated form of the object or
         used  to  give  multiple  steps of the
         object about the center point.

     <R> revolves an object about a  horizontal
         or  vertical  axis.  Use  like  <r> by
         marking axis center, and any two oppo-
         site  corners. The following creates a
         donut from a circle:

         F3        |1    [revp]

                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-21






















  <a>  again  - allows the same object to be
      rotated or zoomed  again  with  a  new
      angle/size.  <a>gain  can  be particu-
      larly useful when you are not sure  of
      the exact angle or zoom amount needed.

  <A>  again  -  rotates  and zooms the last
      object at the same time.

  <Ctrl-a> again - switches from  all  color
      rotation/zoom  to  single  color rota-
      tion/zoom and vice versa.  The  single
      color  used  is the color set by <F10>
      when <F1 Ctrl-a> is called.

  <Alt-a>  again  -  allows   a   previously
      rotated  object  to be zoomed and vice
      versa.

























  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-22






















     <z> zooms an object  either  up  or  down.
         Does  not  change  drawing  scale. Use
         like <r> by marking  center,  and  any
         two opposite corners. The center loca-
         tion is  particularly  important  when
         using  multiple  steps  to produce 3-D
         effects. Placing the center  far  away
         from object results in a stretched 3-D
         effect when using step. *C*-will  zoom
         only  current  color  as  selected  by
         <F10>.

     <Alt-z> to zoom entire object.  (all  col-
         ors)  <Alt-z>  is  identical to <z> in
         all  aspects  except  how  colors  are
         handled.

         Both  <z>  and <Alt-z> allow a step to
         be set for zooming.  This  allows  you
         to create 3-D effects, that work espe-
         cially well with certain text fonts.

     <Z> zooms the entire screen  up  or  down,
         changing scaling accordingly. A screen
         aspect ratio of 1.0 in color or 2.0 in
         high resolution gives the best results
         for zooming.

         When zooming with <z>, <Z>, or <Alt-Z>
         you  will be asked to Enter Scale Fac-
         tor.  The  number  entered  multiplies
         the  current  screen scale, thus scale
         factors greater than  one  shrink  the
         object  relative  to  the screen while
         scale factors less than one expand the
         object  on the screen. Use <Space Bar>
         or  </>  to  enter  the  Zoom   Factor
         instead  of the Scale Factor. The Zoom
         Factor  multiplies  the  object  size,
         thus  factors  greater than one expand
         the object, while  factors  less  than
         one shrink the object.

                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-23






















  <Ctrl-z> zooms portion of screen for edit-
      ing on a pixel by pixel basis. Select-
      ing <Ctrl-z> a second time will  allow
      work  on  8  screens  at one time. The
      size of the pixel  screen  corresponds
      to  the  size  of the patterns used in
      <F5 f>ill. While in  the  pixel  (FAT-
      BITS)  mode  the  colors of the pixels
      are entered directly as 0,1,2,  or  3.
      To  draw with a color use <t>race fol-
      lowed by the color number,  then  move
      the  cursor  to leave the line behind.
      Use <t> a second time to turn off  the
      trace. Exit pixel editing with <Esc>.

      While  in the pixel editing mode, text
      mode files can be brought in. This  is
      designed  for  macro play back and has
      little use  in  drawing  editing.  The
      text  screens  should  be  saved  in a
      BSAVE format. <o>ld prompts for a file
      name to load.

      If  multiple  screens  are loaded when
      entering the FATBITS mode  use  <Ctrl-
      PgDn>  and <Ctrl-PgUp> to move through
      the pages.  Alternately  with  version
      3.50  use  <Alt-s>  to turn on scroll.
      With scroll  on  any  cursor  movement
      moves  the  window. <t>race works with
      scrolling. It is  possible  to  scroll
      over the enter screen for easier edit-
      ing.










  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-24






















     <m> mirrors image of an object defined  in
         box.  Select  mirror line orientation.
         The original image remains intact as a
         duplicate mirror image is made.

         Mirroring  of  an object is one of the
         most useful functions available in any
         drawing/paint  program.  Many  objects
         are symmetrical, but when  drawing  by
         conventional means, ie. paper and pen-
         cil, you must draw both  sides  of  an
         object   independently.  With  PC-KEY-
         DRAW you can  draw  one  side  of  the
         object  and  then use <m>irror to make
         it symmetrical.


     <M> mirrors entire screen either  horizon-
         tally or vertically.

         Mirroring  of the entire screen can be
         a necessity in creating  certain  spe-
         cial  effects.  For example when using
         <F1 S> or <F1 Ctrl-s>lide to create  a
         bowl  effect  (see Library disk #2 for
         several macros)  the  screen  must  be
         mirrored because slide only works from
         left to right.

  <f>  flips/rotates  object through desired
      view angle, thus compressing it.

  <F>  flips/rotates  full  screen   through
      desired view angle.

      Think of <f>lip and <F>lip as follows:
      Draw a circle on  a  piece  of  paper.
      Hold  the piece of paper in your hands
      so that it is  perpendicular  to  your
      line of sight, ie the circle and paper
      are in full view. Rotate the paper and
      notice  how  the  circle  turns  to an
      ellipse. <f> and <F> perform the  same
      function on the screen.

         the entire  screen.  The  <B>ackground
         valve is changed accordingly.

     <Ctrl-v> reverse video - switches colors 0
         to 2; 1 to 3; 2 to 0; 3 to 1. Works on
         the  entire  screen.  The <B>ackground
         value is changed accordingly.

     <Alt-v> XORs screen with set value. An XOR
         with  255 is equivalent to <v>. A ran-
         dom  value  is  assigned   each   time
         <Alt-V>  is  accessed. You can use the
         default random value or enter your own
         number. Works on the entire screen.

         Reverse  video  works on a full screen
         only. To reverse  only  an  object  is
         necessary  to copy the object and ani-
         mate it using the  commands  of  <F7>,
         then use <v> and the object's color is
         now reversed.

     <S>  slides  entire  screen.  In  the same
         fashion as  <s>.  <S>  uses  a  linear
         slide factor of 1.

     <Ctrl-s>  slides  entire  screen  as above
         only to a power (slide factor) from  2
         to 4.

         Slide  distorts the screen by shifting
         it line by line. The amount each  line
         is  shifted is calculated based on the
         step size (default=10) and  the  power
         factor.  The direction of the slide is
         either vertically up or down, or hori-
         zontally  left  and right. A number of
         macros are included on Library Disk #2
         that  make  use  of  slide to create a
         bowl  effect  with  what  is  on   the

         draws  a  rectangle  one  pixel  wide,
         while  a  width  setting  of 5 draws a
         rectangle five pixels wide. For  lines
         the  maximum  width is 32, for rectan-

      position is the radius and one end  of
      the  arc.  The  third  position is the
      other end of the arc. Arcs are  always
      drawn counterclockwise.

  <A>  draws  arc  with lines from center to

  <f> fills area with one of 64 patterns. In
      order to properly fill an area it must
      be fully enclosed just as  with  paint
      or  the  fill will leak out. The basic
      64 patterns can be modified as desired
      using  <F7  o>  to  load  the file KD-
      PTRN.PIC into one of the  screens  and
      then  changing the desired pattern(s).
      Be sure to save the patterns with  <F7
      C>.

  <Alt-f>  fills area with pattern from user
      specified file. File must have  a  PIC
      extension.  Library  Disk  #2 contains
      640+ patterns for  inclusion  in  your
      drawings.  Once  a particular file has
      been called it is remembered and  used
      as  the  default for <f>. See Appendix
      H: for pictures of the  supplied  pat-
      terns.

      While viewing the pattern screen it is
      possible to change that color combina-
      tions  of  the  pattern  screens using
      <v>, <V>, and <Ctrl-v>  to  perform  a
      reverse video using the conventions of
      F1  Modifications.  <S>hift  is   also
      available  while  viewing  the pattern
      screen.  These  four  commands  effec-
      tively increase the number of patterns
      by a factor of 12, thus each  64  pat-
      terns  on  a  screen  are actually 768
      patterns. 640  patterns  are  supplied
      with  PC-KEY-DRAW  version 3.50 making
      for a total  of  7680  effective  pat-
      terns.  If  this is not enough you can
      always create your own.






  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-48






















     <s> strips - all colors on  screen  except
         the  one  set  with <F10>. This can be
         useful for producing color  viewgraphs
         without  a  color printer as discussed
         in Appendix F. It can also be used  to
         turn  all  of the foreground colors to
         the same color by setting the  desired
         color  with <Alt-F10> and then setting
         <F10> to the background color (0).

     <S> shifts - screen foreground  colors  by
         one.   The  background  color  is  not
         effected.  Thus  color  1  becomes  2,
         color 2 becomes 3, and color 3 becomes
         1. <S>hift  is  also  available  while
         selecting  a  fill pattern under <F5>.
         <S>hift only works on  a  full  screen
         and not an object. To shift the colors
         of an object use the following  steps:
         (version 3.50 or later)

         Erase  the  object to be shifted using
         <F7 e>.

  F6  Draw & Text
  ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

  <d> dot - places point at cursor location.
      <ENTER> will mark dot and added it  to
      the vector array.

  <D> continues vector array from last point
      entered.


  <l> line - connects cursor points  with  a
      line  and adds it to the vector array.
      A <ENTER> will  mark  next  point  and
      continue  drawing.  All points must be
      marked with an <ENTER>  or  they  will
      not  be  saved.  Select  <F6> a second
      time and <e> or <E> to end line  draw-
      ing.  You can temporarily suspend line
      drawing with a <Space  Bar>  and  con-
      tinue  it  again  with the an <ENTER>.
      <Back Space> backs up one point.

  <L> continues vector array from last point
      entered.

      The  dot  size  and line width are set
      with <w>idth from the CURSOR MODE  and
      can be changed as desired while enter-
      ing lines and  points.  The  line  and
      dot  color  are determined by the set-
      ting of <F10> which may be changed  as
      desired   while  entering  points  and
      lines.









  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-50






















     <p> parallel - draws  parallel  lines  and
         adds  it to the vector array. Mark the
         first point of  the  first  line,  the
         cursor  will  be left behind. Mark the
         second end point  of  the  first  line
         with  <ENTER>.  Move to the second end
         point of  the  each  subsequent  lines
         that you want and select <ENTER>.

     <P> continues vector array from last point
         entered.

     <s> spoke - draws lines from common center
         point and adds it to the vector array.
         Spoke   works    very    similar    to
         <p>arallel.

     <S> continues vector array from last point
         entered.

         The line width  is  set  with  <w>idth
         from   the  CURSOR  MODE  and  can  be
         changed  as  desired  while   entering
         lines. The line color is determined by
         the setting  of  <F10>  which  may  be
         changed   as  desired  while  entering
         lines.
















                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-51






















  <e>  exit  -  ends  current mode. Required
      after any of the above. There is  cur-
      rently  a limit of 200 points that can
      be   entered   before   <e>nding    is
      required.  If more then 200 points are
      entered the program will automatically
      end,  redraw the object, and ask if it
      is correct.

  <E> ends current mode and saves line draw-
      ing to disk using user specified name.
      These are saved  as  vectors  and  are
      ideal  for  commonly used symbols. The
      default extension is VCT.

  <Ctrl-e> allows the last drawn vector sym-
      bol  to  be  saved to disk, even after
      other operations.

      Line, dot, parallel  line,  and  spoke
      line  must  be ended. When the line is
      ended the screen  is  first  refreshed
      and then the line redrawn.




















  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-52






















     <o>  old  line drawing from disk. A single
         drive letter will display  appropriate
         files  on  disk. Must specify rotation
         angle(any  angle)  and  scale  factor.
         When asked for the scale factor select
         </> to enter the zoom factor  instead.
         A  scale  or  zoom  factor of one will
         bring the object  in  matched  to  the
         drawing scale you are working on, thus
         if a couch is  created  to  scale  and
         saved to disk and later recalled while
         working on a  floor  plan  layout  the
         couch  will  appear in proper scale to
         the rest of the floor plan.

     <O> old, last drawing selected  from  disk
         or last vector drawn. Allows alternate
         rotation and scale.

























                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-53






















  <c> cursor - draws continuous lines as the
      cursor is moved. Use this function for
      freehand  drawing  with  the cursor or
      with a mouse. Line drawing can be sus-
      pended  by  hitting a <Space Bar> (the
      second  mouse  button)  and  restarted
      with the <ENTER> key.

      Unlike  most  other drawing operations
      in PC-KEY-DRAW,  <c>ursor  drawing  is
      absolute  and once down is not redrawn
      on ending. As a result  the  displayed
      grid  and visual layers are not avail-
      able as they  would  otherwise  become
      part of the drawing.

      Cursor  drawing must be ended to actu-
      ally save it to the current screen.

























  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-54






















     <t> text - enters text at cursor location.
         (Location when <F6 t> is selected) The
         size of the text is determined by  the
         mode  the program is in. In high reso-
         lution 80 column  text  is  available,
         while  in  medium  resolution  only 40
         column text  is  available.  The  text
         will  not  be  exactly  at  the cursor
         location, but will be placed  as  near
         as   possible  on  the  standard  text
         screen. To place  text  exactly  where
         wanted use <Ctrl-t> or <Alt-t>.

     <T> text - allows text to be <c>entered or
         justified <r>ight or <l>eft. <T>  also
         allows  text  to  scroll  up (good for
         macro slide shows), to be printed ver-
         tically  <u>p  or  <d>own,  allows <a>
         ASCII file import to the current  line
         the  cursor  is on, filling to the end
         of the file or end of the  screen  and
         <A>  provides continuous input of text
         until <Esc> is selected. The same con-
         ventions of text size for <t> apply to
         <T>. Scrolling takes place when a cap-
         ital  letter  is used for a particular
         command.

     <Ctrl-t> text - is copied into <F7> so  it
         can  be moved to position required. As
         with <t> and  <T>  the  text  size  is
         determined  by  the  mode. <Ctrl-t> is
         useful  for  a  number  of  operations
         where it is necessary to exactly place
         the text.








                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-55






















  <Alt-t>  text  -  allows  use of alternate
      fonts as stored  on  disk.  Font  file
      default  extension  is  FNT and can be
      created with any and all program  fea-
      tures  and saved with <F7 C>. The pro-
      gram disk contains two font files, KD-
      FONT1.FNT  and  KD-FONT2.FNT.  Library
      Disk  #3  contains   additional   font
      files. See Appendix H.

      Font text is brought into animation so
      that it can be place as  desired.  Use
      <x>  to  left justify by setting the x
      coordinate to zero,  use  <C>enter  to
      center  the text on the screen. To fix
      the text use <F7 M>. A number of  text
      oriented  macros  are  supplied on the
      program disk (in compiled form) in KD-
      DRAW.HOT.  These macros provide a num-
      ber of methods to change the  animated
      text  to  outline,  bold,  shadow, and
      other special effects. See the section
      on  Macros  for additional information
      as to what is available.

  <x> allows direct coordinate entry.  Enter
      the  scaled  x  and y coordinates. The
      cursor will jump to the new point.

  <n> or </> or < > or <Esc> exits function.

     F7 Copy & Move
     ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

     <e> erases the enclosed area and copies it
         for  use  with  <a>,  <s>, <r>, and/or
         <m>. The erased area is held in the F7
         screen  buffer  until  replaced with a
         subsequent  operation  using  F7.   If
         after  erasing  an  area you decide to
         save it to disk, use <Ctrl-PgDn> until
         you  reach Screen F7 and save with <F8
         s>ave. The file will be saved as a PIC
         file.

     <E>  erase and animate - allows an area to
         be picked up and moved quickly.  After
         erasing   the   area   the  screen  is
         updated. <F7 E> is equivalent  to  <F7
         e  ENTER F7 a>. One application of <E>
         is to drag  an  object  on  screen  to
         enlarge  it. Try the following, start-
         ing with the cursor in the center area
         of  the screen and the cursor step set
         to between 5 and 10:

         F2        |1    Create object

                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-57






















  <Ctrl-e>  erases  area enclosed in circle.
      The erased area is not  saved  and  is
      therefore  lost,  unless  <n>o  is the
      response when asked "Correct (y/n)".

  <Alt-e> erases enclosed area in  the  same
      way as <e>rase but does not copy it to
      the F7 screen buffer and therefore the
      object  is  lost,  unless  <n>o is the
      response when asked  "Correct  (y/n)".
      Any   object  in  the  buffer  is  not
      effected. If <e>rase is  used  in  the
      Screen  F7 then <Alt-e>rase will auto-
      matically be substituted.





























  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-58






















     <c> copies area to be moved, but does  not
         erase  it. The area is saved in the F7
         screen buffer.

     <C> copies the portion of  the  screen  to
         disk  for  later  use. No extension on
         the user supplied name creates a  file
         with   a   PIC   ending  that  can  be
         retrieved with <F7 o>. A FIG extension
         saves  portion  of  screen in an ASCII
         format. A BAS extension will save  the
         screen  as  a basic subroutine for use
         in user written programs. A FNT  saves
         the  object  as part of a font library
         for use with <F6 Alt-t>.

     <Ctrl-c> copies the same  size  object  as
         previously copied without remarking.

         Note: The last screen copied or erased
         can be view and further manipulated by
         selecting  <Ctrl-End>  <Ctrl-PgDn>. It
         is possible to copy the entire  screen
         as follows.

                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-59






















  <o> retrieves drawings saved with <C>. The
      object  is  brought into animation and
      can be positioned as desired.  If  the
      object   looks   jumbled,  it  may  be
      because it is partially off the  right
      side  of the screen. Try moving to the
      left to see the object.

  <O> retrieves drawings saved with <C>  and
      immediately  places them on the screen
      as would occur with <F7  Alt-m>,  thus
      replace  anything  under the rectangle
      defining the object.

  <a> animate allows a previously copied  or
      erased  area  to  be  moved around the
      screen with the cursor. As the  object
      is  moved vertically off the screen it
      will slowly disappear until the cursor
      wraps. As the object is moved horizon-
      tally off the screen it  will  distort
      until  wrapping occurs. <a>nimate XORs
      the object  with  the  screen  so  the
      background  is  left  unchanged as the
      object is moved about. Use animate  to
      position  an object prior to moving or
      for special effects in  a  slide  show
      macro.  Several  commands will put the
      user directly  in  the  animate  mode,
      such  as  <F6 Ctrl-t>, <F6 Alt-t>, and
      <F6 o>.  See  <F7  Alt-s>mear  for  an
      alternate  form  of  object animation.











  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-60






















     <m> moves area previously erased or copied
         to lower right of cursor. <m> XORs the
         copied  area  with  what  is  on   the
         screen.  If  a  copied object is XORed
         twice the  original  screen  image  is
         restored intact.

     <M> moves area previously erased or copied
         to lower right of cursor. <M> performs
         an OR with the object and screen, thus
         superimposing the  copied  image  onto
         the screen.

     <Ctrl-m>  moves  area previously erased or
         copied  to  lower  right  of   cursor.
         <Ctrl-M> uses AND to transfer an image
         only  if  an  image  already   exists,
         therefore  if <Ctrl-m> is used to move
         onto a blank area of the screen, noth-
         ing   will  appear  to  happen.  Note:
         <ENTER> and <Ctrl-m> are identical  to
         an IBM PC keyboard.

     <Alt-m>  moves  area  previously erased or
         copied  to  lower  right  of   cursor.
         <Alt-m>   uses   the  PSET  action  to
         replace a portion of the  screen  with
         the copied image.

         The   sample   demo  provides  a  good
         example  of  the   different   results
         obtained  with  the  four  syntaxes of
         move. Each of the four methods of mov-
         ing have different applications.









                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-61






















  <s> smear - moves the copied  object  with
      each step of the cursor, thus smearing
      it across the  screen.  <s>  XORs  the
      object with the screen, so that if the
      object is  moved  over  where  it  had
      already been, it will disappear.

  <S>  smear  - moves the copied object with
      each step of the cursor, thus smearing
      it  across the screen. <S> performs an
      OR with the object and screen  as  the
      object  is move, so that the object is
      superimposed on the screen image.

  <Ctrl-s> smear - moves the  copied  object
      with  each  step  of  the cursor, thus
      smearing it on  the  screen.  <Ctrl-s>
      will  AND  the object with the screen,
      thus the object will be placed only if
      an image already exists on the screen.

  <Alt-s>  smear  -  moves the copied object
      with each step  of  the  cursor,  thus
      smearing   it   across   the   screen.
      <Alt-s> moves the  object  absolutely,
      thus  replacing  anything  beneath the
      object. <Alt-s> can be used for anima-
      tion of an object, try the following:

      F2        |1     Start with speed=8

     <r>  replicate  -  moves the copied object
         with each step of the cursor with  the
         speed  set  to  the object's size. <r>
         XORs the object with  the  screen,  so
         that if the object is moved over where
         it had already been,  it  will  disap-
         pear.

     <R>  replicate  -  moves the copied object
         with each step of the cursor with  the
         speed  set  to  the object's size. <R>
         performs an OR  with  the  object  and
         screen  as the object is move, so that
         the  object  is  superimposed  on  the
         screen image.

     <Ctrl-r>  replicate  -  moves  the  copied
         object with each step  of  the  cursor
         with  the  speed  set  to the object's
         size. <Ctrl-r>  will  AND  the  object
         with  the screen, thus the object will
         be placed only  if  an  image  already
         appears on the screen.

     <Alt-r> replicate -moves the copied object
         with each step of the cursor with  the
         speed   set   to  the  object's  size.
         <Alt-r> moves the  object  absolutely,
         thus  replacing  anything  beneath the
         object.

         To fill the screen  with  a  wallpaper
         effect  using a previously copied area
         try the following:

         ALT-1     |1
         F7        |1
         ALT-r     |1
         Move cursor around on screen  to  fill
         it  with  replicated  patterns  of the
         copied area.


                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-63






















  <l>  inserts a horizontal line at the cur-
      sor  position.  The  number  of  lines
      inserted  is  determined by the cursor
      speed setting.

  <Alt-l> deletes a horizontal line  at  the
      cursor  position.  The number of lines
      deleted is determined by  the  current
      cursor speed setting (<F10>).

  <l>  and  <Alt-l> are useful when creating
      text slides or viewgraphs. As text  is
      entered and placed to create the slide
      using  the  various  text  options  of
      <F6>, it may not be evenly distributed
      on the screen. Copy and  move  can  be
      used  to  change  the placement of the
      text, but a faster approach to  adjust
      the number of horizontal lines between
      two lines of text is  to  use  <l>  to
      insert  lines  or  <Alt-l>  to  delete
      lines.

  <x> allows direct coordinate entry.  Enter
      the  scaled  x  and y coordinates. The
      cursor will jump to the new point.

  <n> or </> or < > or <Esc> exits function.

     <d> directory of selected disk.  Any  disk
         drive  A-Z can be accessed. The entire
         directory is shown.  Partial  directo-
         ries  are  available  any time you are
         asked for a FILE NAME  by  entering  a
         single   drive   letter   only,   then
         <ENTER>. Use the  SUBST  command  with
         DOS  3*  to  replace  path  names with
         single drive letters. PC-KEY-DRAW ver-
         sion  3.50  and  beyond will recognize
         subdirectories  directly  without  the
         use  of  SUBST,  but SUBST still is an
         ideal  method  of  minimizing  typing.
         Directory  information beyond a single
         drive can be obtained by ending in the
         full subdirectory as you would in DOS.
         For example to see all screen files in
         subdirectory C:\DRAW\LIBRARY1 enter:

         F8        |1
         d         |1
         ***TEXT***|C:\DRAW\LIBRARY1\*.SCN|1

         While  the above will show the desired
         files in the specified drive  it  does
         not change where the program will look
         for them on subsequent  file  retriev-
         als. To change the drive and/or subdi-
         rectory that  is  used  for  completed
         drawings,  simply  enter  an "=" equal
         sign head of the drive\subdirectory as
         in the following:

         F8        |1
         d         |1
         ***TEXT***|=C:\DRAW\LIBRARY1\*.SCN|1




                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-65






















  <s> saves the current drawing  -  must  be
      room  on  disk.  For best results on a
      two floppy system save drawings on  B:
      with the program in A:. Two files will
      be saved. The first is the screen file
      saved with a SCN extension. The second
      is the data file  for  scale  informa-
      tion.  The data file will not be saved
      if the scaling in use is  the  default
      pixel  scaling.  Multiple pages/layers
      must be saved  independently  if  they
      are  to  be used again. A single drive
      letter displays the  screen  files  on
      that drive.

      If  the  user is in Screen F7 when the
      <s>ave command is given the file  will
      be  saved in the F7 format in the same
      way as if <F7 C>opy and save had  been
      used.  Only  the  object on the screen
      and not  the  full  screen  is  saved.
      This feature can be overridden by spe-
      cifying the SCN extension when  saving
      in  Screen  F7.  A  PIC  extension  is
      otherwise assigned.


















  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-66






















     <o> old - retrieves a stored drawing  from
         disk  Screens  previously created with
         this program should have an associated
         data  file  with  scale information. A
         directory of files available for load-
         ing are available by entering a single
         drive letter at the request  for  FILE
         NAME.

     <O>  old  -  displays screen files on disk
         and loads then for sequential  display
         using  <PgDn>. The <p>ause command can
         be used to temporarily  pause  if  the
         <O>  option  is  used as part of a key
         macro. <O>ld sequential  can  be  used
         nicely  for full screen animation from
         a RAM disk. If  a  set  of  sequential
         screen  files  are  held in a RAM disk
         they can be  called  up  very  quickly
         with  <O>  providing  a form of anima-
         tion.

     <Ctrl-o>  template  -  allows  a  template
         screen   to  be  called  up.  Disables
         updating  of  disk.  Retrieve  working
         screen  with <F8> <w> or <W>. SCreen 2
         can be  used  for  a  template  screen
         without  invoking template. This keeps
         your template files  handy.  The  tem-
         plate  command  has remained primarily
         for compatibility to  older  versions.
         It is recommended that a second screen
         be used for loading  template  screens
         with the standard <o>ld command.









                           COMMAND SUMMARY 4-67






















  <Alt-o> displays screen files using one of
      five  display  methods.  This  is pri-
      marily for use with slide show  macros
      as  a  special  effect.  The files are
      first loaded  into  the  memory  space
      normally  reserved  for  Screen  F7 so
      anything in that buffer will be  lost.
      The five display types are:

        1 Fade In
        2 Pull Down
        3 Pull Up
        4 Pull Right
        5 Pull Left

  <f>  fresh  -  clears  screen  and  starts
      again. If the current drawing has  not
      been saved on disk it will be lost.

  <F>  fresh  -  clears screen and layers or
      pages from  workspace  disk.  Be  sure
      you  have  saved  any  and  all of the
      pages and layers  that  you  want  for
      later   use  or  they  will  be  lost.
      <F>resh will delete all files  on  the
      workspace  disk  named  PAGE.??? so do
      not name other files by that  name  or
      they will be lost.















  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-68






















     <p> prints graphics screen on line printer
         #1. The last screen title is displayed
         and  you  are asked if it is OK. <y>es
         will print the title with the  screen.
         <n>o   allows you to enter a new title
         on  the  prompt  line.  Most  printers
         require  that  you  load  GRAPHICS.COM
         (from your DOS disk,  see  DOS  manual
         for  more  information) to print prop-
         erly.

     <P> Zoom prints entire screen.  With  par-
         tial and full screen zoom printing you
         must specify the characters to use and
         one  of three sizes.(1 is the smallest
         and 3 is the largest)

  COMMAND SUMMARY 4-70






















     <w>  restores  old  workspace  #1  to  any
         screen  along  with  scale information
         saved with the  workspace.  The  drive
         for  workspace  is  set as part of the
         general  program   configuration   and
         should  be  a  RAM  disk if available.
         Workspace #1 will appear in the  work-
         space drive as WRKSPC1.SCN.

     <W>  restores  old  workspace  #2  to  any
         screen. Workspace #2  appears  on  the
         workspace drive as WRKSPC2.SCN.

         The   two  workspaces  are  stored  as
         screen files with  an  SCN  extension.
         If  <O>ld sequential is used on a disk
         with a workspace, the  workspace  will
         be  included  in  the  sequential file
         display.

         Use workspace as a quick  save  method
         (see  Update)  or as a place to hold a
         drawing  while  you   make   temporary
         changes to it.

  <k> kills a file on the  disk.  User  must
      specify  full  name  including  drive.
      This works the same  as  the  DOS  DEL
      function.  For wide card deletes use ?
      instead of *. To delete all files with
      a  SCN extension on drive B: enter the
      following    name    when    prompted:
      B:????????.SCN

  <K>  renames  a file on disk by specifying
      the old name of the file and  the  new
      name desired.

  <e>  exits  program completely and returns
      to DOS. Since  PC-KEY-DRAW  offers  so
      many  different ways of saving a draw-
      ing, it is up to you to  be  sure  you
      have  properly  saved  what  you  were
      working on and in the form you wanted.
      <e>xit  does  ask  you to confirm your
      desire  to  exit.  Be  sure  you  have
      saved any work in the form desired.

  <x>  allows direct coordinate entry. Enter

     <F9> Cursor speed is controlled with <F9>,
         <+>, and  <->.  <F9>  toggles  between
         setting  the  cursor speed to 1 and to
         the last speed set with  the  <+>  and
         <->  keys.  This allows rapid movement
         or fine movement. <Tab> also serves to
         toggle  speed.  <Tab> was specifically
         added for  the  "Enhanced"  keyboards.
         Cursor speed also effects joystick and
         mouse speed.

     <Shft-F9> forces the cursor  speed  to  1.
         This  is  intended  for use with a key
         macro.

  F10 Color
  ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ

  <F10>  controls the color that many of the
      functions work  with.  Lines,  rectan-
      gles,  circles  etc.  will be drawn to
      the color set by <F10>. Other commands
      such  as  paint,  spray paint, rotate,
      etc. use the color to work with. If  a
      particular function does not appear to
      work, it may be that the color was not
      set  correctly.  The medium resolution
      mode has 3  foreground  colors  and  1
      background color, while the high reso-
      lution mode has one  foreground  color
      and  one  background  color. To switch
      into a color mode use  <Shft-Tab>.  To
      change  the  foreground  or background
      color set use <F5>.


  <Shft-F10> forces the color  to  color  1.
      This command can be useful in creating
      certain types of key macros.

  <Alt-F10> temporarily sets the  background
      color  used  by the program. The color
      in use is displayed in  column  40  of
      the  screen.  Use  <B>ackground to set
      the background color absolutely.
