External ReadMe - Using


An external fingering file can have documentation associated with it, which is called External ReadMe. This information is loaded at the same time as the external file itself, is displayed within the program's normal display area, and is controlled with the External ReadMe - View/Hide Button.

Some external files automatically display their readme as soon as they are loaded. With others, the user must click the View/Hide button (which acts as a toggle) to view it.

Below is a screen snapshot showing the ReadMe associated with the Supplied file - NORMTRIL.TXT.



As you can see, when ReadMe info is displayed, the screen display changes - the octave and note buttons are greyed, the note scale disappears, and the captions above the Standard and Alternate areas say "ReadMe."  To return to the normal display, the user should click the External ReadMe button, which now says "Hide." (While in ReadMe mode, the Menu option View->BuiltIn Fingerings is also greyed).
