2. Give the action button a Description (name). It appears under the button in

the main window.

When working with buttons, there are a few things to remember:

S

A button and a set can have the same name.

S

A particular button resides in only one set (you could, manually, create

a duplicate in another set).

S

A set can contain up to 99 buttons.

3. You can hide the action button by clearing the Active check box. The button

still exists but does not display. Hiding a button is convenient for seasonal

buttons (e.g., those producing a list of holiday or summer books) or for

classĆappropriateness. The remaining buttons shift over to fill the gap left by

the inactive one. You can reactivate it at any time by checking the box.

4. Place the action button anywhere in the set by selecting the Order number.

The buttons are numbered from left to right, top to bottom. By default, the

first empty position appears. If you choose a number that has already been

taken, the new button takes that position and the others shift down.

Example:

If you choose to assign a button the number 3, the existing buttons,

numbered 3 through 10, become numbers 4 through 11.
