This table summarizes useful tips, such as how to select, delete, rearrange, and access the properties of items.
Option | Description |
---|---|
Selecting an object in the workspace or Products list | Displays its settings in the Properties pane |
Selecting a press run, sheet, web, or surface in the Press Runs List | Displays the layout in the workspace (or the first layout of multiple webs, with the web-selection list). If a press run is selected, it also displays its settings in the Properties pane. |
Selecting a page in the Pages List | Displays its preview in the workspace and its settings in the Properties pane |
Double-clicking an imposition in the workspace | Displays its Modify Imposition dialog box |
Double-clicking a stock, media, mark, or template in a Resources pane list | Adds that resource to the layout in its default position |
Right-clicking an item in a Resources pane list or in the Products list | Displays a context menu of options for that item or list |
Double-clicking inside an editable text box or column | Makes it editable, and in some cases, displays a list of selections |
Tabbing out of a text box that you edited | Applies your edit and moves the cursor to the next text box, if applicable |
Deleting versus removing | Typically, removing takes an item out of the workspace but retains it in the job, and deleting makes it permanently unavailable |
Pressing Delete versus Option/Alt+Delete to remove a ganged page | To remove a ganged content page and its template page, select the page and press Delete. To remove only the content page, press Command/Ctrl+Delete. |
Dragging rows in the Press Runs List | Rearranges the press runs for your viewing convenience |
Dragging sections in the Assembly workspace | Can be used to combine sections or change their binding style or sequence; updates the page and section numbering accordingly |
Editing a property with multiple values ( --, Mixed, Multiple) | When multiple selected items are set to different values, your edit sets them all to the same value. |
