TablEdit Users Say:
"When I am learning a particular piece I always use TablEdit to play it back to get an idea on how it's supposed to go. That way I can figure out what I'm doing wrong if I'm not getting it right."

| The "Print Preview" window shows the score as it will be printed. This allows you to visually proof the printout of your tablature without having to actually print it out first.
|
|
|
| If, instead of simply clicking, you keep the mouse button held down and move the cursor a rectangular "ghost" block appears. The coordinates and size (in pixels) of the block are displayed on the right-hand side of the menu bar. This allows the easy creation of a detailed screen dump of a specific portion of the tablature in a convenient size.
|
|
|
|
| [Print] takes you directly to the printout process and prints everything displayed in the preview.
|
|
|
| [Print setup...] opens a "tabbed" dialog containing relevant portions of the Options dialog so that you can adjust the settings. Any changes you make here can be viewed directly (without closing the dialog) by clicking on [Apply]. The "Preview" button of the Options dialog is then replaced by two << and >> buttons which allow you to browse the print preview without quitting the dialog.
|
|
|
| [<<] and [>>] allow you to navigate, page by page, through a multiple page preview.
|
|
|
| The "Zoom" box allows you to select a zoom factor so that you can view a close-up of the details.
|
|
|
 | Clicking on the icon at the right-hand end of the box opens a list of pre-defined zoom factors.
|
|
|
| Clicking in the box, itself, highlights the existing figure in the box and allows you to enter a zoom factor of your own from the keyboard.
|
|
|
| Once in "Zoom" mode, you can navigate within the page using the scroll bars. As long as you're in this mode, you can cycle through the pre-defined zoom factors using [ ] and [ ] .
|
|
|
| You can specify the area to zoom in on by clicking directly on it in the preview screen. Clicking directly on the preview screen also toggles between the last two zoom factors selected.
|
|
|
| [Export...] opens a drop down menu offering you three options. You can:
|
|
|
| Export the entire page or a selected portion thereof to the Windows clipboard as a bitmapped image (*.bmp)
|
|
|
| Export the entire page or a selected portion thereof to the Windows clipboard as a Windows metafile (*.wmf)
|
|
|
| Save the entire page or a selected portion thereof to the current directory as a Windows meta file (*.wmf).
|
|
|
| The file is automatically exported/saved using the same name as the original *.tef file. The image can then be imported into and edited in any drawing program. This can be useful for teachers creating lesson tablatures.
|
|
|
| [ |--| ] allows you to show/hide the page layout margins before a screen capture.
|
|
|
| [Close] closes the preview screen and returns you directly to the tablature.
