Hi,
I've just discovered mouseText and am loving that I don't have to create transparent buttons that hopefully align on top of text etc. (my really cludgy system).
(snip)
Any suggestions??
Thanks!
Judy
Hi Judy,
Another pedagogical tool which I have found useful is a plug-in which bring up a pointer to locate the position on the screen of the object being discussed in the text.
That is, if the text refers to a button or image, the key word in the text is underlined and colored blue; when the mouse passes over this descriptive word, a hand appears with a finger pointing to the button or image refered to in the text.
If you think this would be helpful, try this in the msg box
go url "http://home.infostations.net/jhurley/PointerTool.rev";
To see the pointer in action, click the "Help" button in the Pointer plug-in and pass the mouse over the blue, underlined word "Return" in the text field that comes up.
Jim
(This is an update of a previous, very clumsy version. I think I have finally figured out how to use palettes.)
