Adding items to the Viewer

Note: The following instructions apply only when the Viewer is in Classic (Syntax & Output) mode (Edit > Options > General > Application Mode > Classic (Syntax & Output)).

In the Viewer, you can add items such as titles, new text, charts, or material from other applications.

Text items that are not connected to a table or chart can be added to the Viewer.

  1. Click the table, chart, or other object that will precede the title or text.
  2. From the menus choose:

    Insert > New Title

    or

    Insert > New Text

  3. Double-click the new object.
  4. Enter the text.

Add a text file

  1. In the outline pane or contents pane of the Viewer, click the table, chart, or other object that will precede the text.
  2. From the menus choose:

    Insert > Text File...

  3. Select a text file.

To edit the text, double-click it.

Pasting objects into the Viewer

Objects from other applications can be pasted into the Viewer. You can use either Paste After or Paste Special. Either type of pasting puts the new object after the currently selected object in the Viewer. Use Paste Special when you want to choose the format of the pasted object.
