Details
Use Details on the Edit menu
to activate the Details dialog. The Details
dialog shows the following information about the current document:
- Title: If the document is located internally, the
title is the database's name. If the document is located on an
external memory card, the title is the document's file name.
- Date: The date is the creation date of the document.
- Category: The dialog shows the document's current
category, which you can change using this dialog.
- Private: This shows whether the document's entry
in the document list is private or not. You can change the
setting using this dialog.
If you change either the document's Category or Private fields,
tap OK to accept the changes or tap Cancel to cancel the changes.
You can also use the Details dialog to delete the current document
by tapping the Delete button. If you do so, RediReader™
asks for confirmation before deleting the document.
Note: If you used the Open File command from the
Tools menu of the document list view to open the document,
the Details dialog does not have either the Category or the
Private fields since these fields only apply to the document
list entries. Also, the Delete button is absent.
Use Document Information on the Edit menu
to activate the Document Information dialog. This dialog
shows the same information as the dialog that you can access
from the document list view in
If the creator of the document added title, author, and publisher
information to the document, then tap More to view this
information. Tap the individual Title, Author,
and Publisher pushbuttons along the top to view the
corresponding information. If the document does not have
the corresponding information, the dialog displays
"No information" to indicate this.
Autoscroll
Use Autoscroll on the Tools menu to start autoscroll mode.
In autoscroll mode, the page automatically scrolls down at an
adjustable constant speed.
While autoscrolling, you can set the autoscroll speed to any
of 20 levels. To increase the speed, press the hardware down
button. To decrease the speed, press the hardware up button.
If your device has a jog wheel or jog dial, rotate down
to increase the speed and rotate up to decrease the speed.
Each increment increases the speed by one third.
Performing any action other than increasing or decreasing
the autoscroll speed stops autoscrolling. The easiest way
to stop autoscrolling without performing any other action
simultaneously is to tap on an inactive area of the screen.
If you use autoscroll often while holding your device in
one hand, you may want to consider
mapping one of the hardware
buttons to the autoscroll action. Pressing such a mapped
button starts autoscrolling while pressing it again stops
autoscrolling, providing a convenient way for starting
and stopping/pausing autoscrolling.
By default, autoscroll uses smooth scrolling. See
Scroll options to change the
autoscroll mode so that it scrolls a line at a time.
Full Screen
Use Full Screen on the Tools menu to activate full screen mode
so that the content display uses the entire screen. In addition
to using the menu command to activate full screen mode, you can also
assign a button to activate
full screen mode.
In full screen mode, the title bar, scroll bar, and tool bar are
hidden. If the menu silk screen icon is available, you can still
use it to access the menu bar. You can tap in the lower left
or lower right corner to temporarily activate the tool bar.
When you exit full screen mode, the title bar, scroll bar, and tool
bar return to the hidden or shown state they were in before you entered
full screen mode.
If you are in full screen mode, you can exit the mode in
one or more of the following ways:
- Use a button to which you have assigned
the full screen action
- Use any button not assigned to any action (e.g., a button whose
assignment is the default), aside from the Aux/Back button.
- Push the jog dial or jog wheel, if available on the device, and
if all buttons are assigned to actions other than the full screen action
- Use Full Screen on the Tools menu
- Use Graffiti® to enter the Command stroke then the letter 'f'.
Use System Information on the Tools menu
to activate the System Information dialog so that you can
determine the user ID you need to provide in order to obtain
a registration code for a document that requires a registration
code. The user ID is provided in the User ID field.
The dialog also shows the amount of free internal memory
and the total amount of internal memory. Dynamic memory is
the working memory that a running program has available
for direct use while storage memory is the memory used
for database storage.
