#83: Working in Buzzword
Get the Buzz
Some of the Flash-enabled
features added to Buzzword
make it simpler for you to
work in the interface with-
out having to choose menu
items, as you are likely to do
when working in an ordinary
application. Here are a few:
•
Visual guides appear
over items on the page
when you select different
objects. For example, if
you drag a column on a
table, controls show the
amount of the indent; if
you add an image, con-
trols for resizing display
and show dimensions as
you change the image
size.
•
Activating different items
on a page displays arrow
buttons . Click an
arrow to open a context
menu for that item. For
example, if you click a
column in a table, click
the arrow button to show
commands to cut/copy/
paste the column, or
insert more columns.
•
A faint comment icon
moves along with your
pointer on the right side
of the page. Click the
icon to open a comment
box, which is associated
with the content on that
line of your document.
