Drawing Assist Support for Popup Pages

Once a popup page is displayed on a main Page in the Design View, you can utilize several of the Drawing

Assist tools (available via the Position and Size Assist toolbars and the Layout menu) to edit the size and

position of the popup page.

With only the popup page selected, you can use the Center Horizontal and Center Vertical, the Size to Image

tool (if an image has been placed on the popup page), all five Border tools (if a border has been applied to the

popup page), as well as apply any of the options from the Aspect Ratio tool.

With the selection of one or more buttons on the page in conjunction with a popup page selection, all of the

existing Drawing Assist tools are available to allow you to size and align their popup page(s) with existing

buttons on the page.

Setting Standard Popup Page Properties

Standard Popup Pages have Standard, Programming and States Properties that can be configured in the

Properties window. To set Standard Popup Page properties, click on the Popup Page in the Design View, or

select a Popup Page in the Workspace window (Pages tab). With the Popup Page selected, the Properties

window displays the properties available for the Popup, separated into three tabs (General, Programming and

States).
