This be will used <BR>> in SignPuddle 2 and released with the SignWriting Image Server GPL code:<BR>> http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle/swis/signmaker.php<BR>> <BR>> Improvements<BR>> ==========<BR>> Small Screen Support<BR>> ----------------------------<BR>> The entire SymbolPalette now fits on the screen without scrolling. We <BR>> may need to discuss the size of the SignBox, which has increased. Can <BR>> you see the whole SignBox and all of the Special Commands?<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> SignSpelling Sequence<BR>> -----------------------------<BR>> The sequence is now on the same screen as the SignBox. You can write <BR>> the sign and add the sorting information at the same time. The sequence <BR>> is the little square box on the top right. You can drag a symbol from <BR>> the SymbolPalette or the SignBox. You can reorder the sequence by <BR>> dragging the symbols around. You can remove symbols from the sequence <BR>> by clicking. Blank boxes in the sequence are ignored.<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Fine Movement and Grid<BR>> --------------------------------<BR>> There are now directional arrows in the special command section for fine <BR>> tuning the placement of symbols. Select a symbol (so it turns blue) and <BR>> move it around 1 pixel at a time with any of the arrows. If no symbol <BR>> is selected, all symbols will more. The icon in the middle of the <BR>> arrows will turn on the SignBox grid for easier spatial comparison.<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> I've tested the new SignMaker in FireFox and Internet Explorer on Mac <BR>> and Windows. The only problem is with IE and the fine movement arrows.<BR>> <BR>> Any feedback or comments are welcome.<BR>> <BR>> Thanks,<BR>> -Steve<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> ____________________________________________<BR>> <BR>> SW-L SignWriting List<BR>> <BR>> Post Message<BR>> SW-L@majordomo.valenciacc.edu<BR>> <BR>> List Archives and Help<BR>> http://www.signwriting.org/forums/swlist/<BR>> <BR>> Change Email Settings<BR>> http://majordomo.valenciacc.edu/mailman/listinfo/sw-l<BR>> <BR><BR><br /><hr /> <a href='' target='_new'></a></body>
