How to create presentations

GDDM-PGF V2R1.3 OPS User's Guide
SC33-1776-00



Having established the basic principles, let's look at how you go about creating a presentation.

Obviously you could edit the infile, entering text and commands just as you would do with any document or source program, and then start OPS against the file and check the result. However, this would be slow. OPS includes a number of development tools to speed up the process.

In the sections that follow, you will find detailed descriptions of the following commands, which help you develop presentations:

EDIT
Edit the infile
GRID
Display the coordinate system
GRAIN
Set the accuracy of screen readings
GETC
Read coordinates from the screen
UNDO
Remove the last or a selected object
DRAFT
Use simplified drawing mode
TEST
Test an object command
COPY
Copy an object
MOVE
Move an object
DELETE
Delete an object
PUT
Put a finished command into a file
END
Leave OPS

You'll also find your work easier if you have the the following PF keys assigned to OPS commands (as OPS does by default):

PF3
END
PF4
GRID SW
PF5
LAST ALL
PF6
LAST
PF9
UNDO
PF10
TEST
PF11
PUT
PF12
EDIT
