in the right pane, and select Settings...).

Base Map Appearance Under Windows PE

Under Windows PE, a base map appears within an actual windowing display. A menu item can appear in the
form of one of the following familiar Windows controls:

• Static text

• Icon text

• Edit box or Prompt

• Checkbox

• Radio button

Below are examples of these controls:

• Static text: This control signifies unselectable text. It may be defined by creating a menu item, the text of

which begins with an ampersand (&) character and which does not have a prompt variable associated
with it. It does have a value defined for the Icon setting in its properties, as well.

• Icon text: This control also signifies unselectable text; and, like the Static text control, the Icon text

control also has no prompt variable associated with it. It does have a value defined for the Icon setting in
its properties, as well.

• Edit box: This is a control which prompts the user for input and has a prompt variable associated with it.

• Checkbox: This is a control which enables a user to choose multiple selections from a list for which

checkbox has been selected in its properties, and whose text does not begin with an ampersand (&)
character.

• Radio button: This control enables a user to make a single choice from a list in which all of the choices

are mutually exclusive.

The user navigates through the menu by selecting items. That is, the next menu to appear in the interface
is determined by which menu item the user selects. In ImageUltra Builder 5.0 it is possible to create a
menu that consists solely of unselectable static text items. Also, in a multi-select menu, the user can
select zero or more check boxes. To determine which menu should appear next in these situations, the
following rules are enforced:

• For single-select lists (lists with radio buttons): Since one, and only one, radio button must be selected

before the user can continue to the next menu, the selected radio button determines the next menu.

• for multi-select lists (lists with check boxes): If one or more check boxes are selected, the last selected

checkbox determines the next menu. If no check box is selected, the last selected checkbox determines
the next menu to appear as well.
