The Gobe Productive suite is a graphics-based application. Thus, placing
images in other documents such as word processing documents or spreadsheets is simple.
Ideally, image processing documents are best used as a place to edit and retouch an
image. Integrating an image with a spreadsheet, text, presentation, or graphics, is
best handled in the respective documents for those types. For example, if you want
to place an image in a presentation, you need to create a presentation document first.
Likewise, if you want to integrate an image with a text document, open a word
processing document first.
Perhaps the simplest way to integrate an image with other document types
is to drag and drop the image file into your document.
- While working in a document (a word processing document for example), relocate the main
Gobe Productive window so you can access the Disks icon on the desktop.
- Double-click the Disks icon. A standard BeOS folders list is
displayed.
- Use the folder lists to locate the image file you wish to place in the word processing
document.
- Once you have located the image file, select it, drag it, and drop it into the
workspace of the word processing document. The application will automatically create
an image processing frame for the image file. You can activate the frame and use any
of the image processing tools or plug-ins.
You can also create an image processing document, sheet, or frame, and then copy and
paste an image into another document. This can be useful if you wish to copy only a
portion of an image from an image file to another Gobe Productive document.
- Open an image processing document or sheet.
- Open the image file you wish to copy.
- Select the portion of the image you wish to copy.
- Select Copy from the Edit menu.
- Open the document or sheet where you wish to place the image.
- Select Paste from the Edit menu.
