The TablEdit Menu

About TablEdit...

This displays an alert box containing information concerning the version of TablEdit being used and the name of the registered user.

If the registered user is identified as "UNREGISTERED" despite the fact that you've registered your copy, something has gone wrong in the registration process (wrong User name or User ID). Try going through the registration procedure again. If the problem persists, please contact the regional registrar who issued you your password.

Preferences...

Selecting {TablEdit | Preferences...} calls up the most comprehensive of TablEdit's dialogs. It can also be accessed directly from the main toolbar by clicking on . The basic dialog consists of nine "tabs" containing almost all of the major controls for setting up the software to produce tablatures the way you want them to look, both on-screen and on the printed page. It also contains the settings controlling many aspects of the way the program behaves as you enter and edit tablatures. Each tab is explained on a page of its own. The nine "tabs" are:

General
Display
Fonts
Printing
Page Layout
Preferences
Screen
Advanced
Multitrack
Others

[Print Preview] takes you directly to the "Print Preview" mode so that you can check the effects of your settings.

[Apply] applies the effects of any settings you make without closing the dialog.

[Close] closes the dialog without applying any changes you may have made to the settings.

[OK] applies any settings or changes you may have made and closes the dialog.

Quit

When you quit TablEdit, you may encounter a dialog asking you if you wish to save any unsaved changes made to the various open files. In addition, all program options and parameters are automatically saved in the "your name/Library/Preferences/com.tabledit.TablEdit.plist" file.

It should be noted that the majority problems that may occur with TablEdit are related to changes made to the configuration or to corrupt configuration data. In this case, we recommend that you re-launch TablEdit while keeping the [] key held down. This will restore the default parameters. Usually this is enough to fix weird display problems, but if this solution did not work, you can uninstall TablEdit, restart your computer and reinstall TablEdit.
