• ADD (clipart, fill, and fonts galleries) is described later in adding to a gallery.
• REMOVE (clipart, fill, and fonts galleries) is described later in deleting sections from a

Selecting items
To select an item:

• Click an item to select it.
• Or click an item, then "Shift + click" on another item; all items in between the two
points will be selected.
• Or "Ctrl + click" to add that item to the selection.
Re-ordering items in the gallery

In some galleries, "MORE" > "SORT" opens a dialog box. You can sort by name and,
depending on the gallery, by other criteria. The primary key controls the initial sort. For
some sort parameters such as file type or name length, there may be two or more files
with the same type or name length. These files can be further sorted using the secondary
key.

Searching for an item name
You can search, for example, for all names containing the word red:

1. Choose "MORE" > "FIND".
2. Type "red" into the text box.
3. Select "SEARCH NAMES & KEYWORDS" to search
only the item names, e.g. file, color, etc., or
"SEARCH ALL INFORMATION" to search the names
and keywords available in some galleries.

Adding to a gallery
You may want to add extra items to these galleries (LOCAL DESIGNS, FILL & FONTS
galleries only). To do this:
4. Copy the files you want to add into a new directory (folder) using the Windows
Explorer.

- For the LOCAL DESIGNS GALLERY these files can be any of a wide range of vector
or bitmap file types.
- For the FILL GALLERY they can be any of the bitmap formats supported by
Designer Pro (listed in importing and exporting (on page 579)).
- For the FONTS GALLERY they can be Adobe Type 1 or TrueType fonts.
5. In the appropriate gallery, click the "DISC DESIGNS/FILLS/FONTS" button. This opens a
dialog box.
6. Use the dialog box to select the directory you want to add.
7. Click "ADD". This creates a new section in the gallery.
