The TPDesign4 Work Area

TPDesign4 (v3.2 or higher)
Since Design View windows represent the pages on the panel themselves, Design Views that
represent pages are not resizable. Use the Zoom and Magnifier Window features to control the size
of the view.
Popup pages are resizable through the Properties Window by adjusting their Left, Top, Width or
Height properties. Alternatively, you can set their size and dimensions manually by first enabling
the Show Popup Page option in the Page menu. Once the Popup is displayed on the page, you can
click and drag to resize and position it manually.
Select the Toggle Information Overlay toolbar button (in the View toolbar) to display function
codes associated with each button (see the Working With Function Codes section on page 301 for
details).
Use the View > MDI Page Tabs option to toggle the page tabs. When this option is enabled, a tab
is displayed for each open page. The page tabs normally appear along the bottom edge of the
Design View window area, but can be moved, toggled or modified via the MDI tabs context menu
(right-click inside any of the tabs).
TPD4 will display up to a maximum of 15 page tabs. If you open more than 15 pages, only the most
recently opened 15 pages will remain open (the others will be automatically closed). No data will
be lost, only the view is closed. See the Design View Window MDI Tab Controls section on page 22
for details.
Right mouse click anywhere within a Design View window to open the Design View context menu.
This context menu contains shortcuts to many key design tools. See Design View Windows section
on page 19.
Select Display from the Design View context menu to access the Display sub-menu, containing
options that allow you to select which state of a selected button to display in the Design View.
Select Layout from the Design View context menu to access the Layout sub-menu, containing
options for layout/design control (send to front/back, align, center, etc). This menu is identical to
the Layout menu, accessible from the main menu bar.
Right mouse click anywhere within a Design View window to open the Design View context menu.
This context menu contains shortcuts to many key design tools.
