TablEdit Users Say:

"I started using TablEdit a few years ago when I had a new guitar for Christmas. My problem is that I cannot read music very well so needed some way of hearing what the music in books and magazines SHOULD sound like. I also needed something which would allow me to follow a tune, at my own pace, with the option of repeating sequences and speeding things up as I improved. TablEdit does all of these things and more. One of the things I really find useful is being able to include and exclude accompaniments as required. Although there is no way I can be called an expert guitar player (my family will vouch for that!), TablEdit has allowed me to enjoy learning to play. I chose TablEdit because it seemed to be the most popular tool available. I was particularly impressed with being able to evaluate the software before buying. I was even more impressed because there was a one off registration fee. The subsequent updates and personal support have been excellent."

TablEdit Manual v2.65

Page Layout options

 
Previous  Top  Next
Help Map
Windows Help


This tab contains the page layout settings for margins, header/footer size and content, etc.



Top & Bottom margins


Defines the vertical space within which objects are printed. As a general rule of layout, the bottom margin should be slightly larger than the top margin.

Left & Right margins

Defines the horizontal space within which objects are printed.

Indent

This option allows you to set the indent of the very first line of the score. To set the indent of a line following a line break, use the line break options.

Footer & Page Layout

By default, TablEdit prints the page number and the page count centered at the bottom of each page.

By default, TablEdit prints the title, the sub-title and any comments at the top of the first page with only the title and sub-title, in small characters, on the following pages. You can adapt this procedure to your own taste by simply re-defining the headers manually

To define headers and/or footers for each printed page, type the required text in the "Header" and "Footer" boxes along with the appropriate formatting codes. You can always restore the predefined values by clicking on [Default].

You can also use page macros to format the text and insert the title, sub-title, comments, etc...

You can add a page number offset (handy when putting together a book, for instance).

Formatting codes:
 
&nthe total page count  
&pthe current page number  
You can have TablEdit add or subtract a constant number of pages to/from the current page number. This is very handy if, for example, you're preparing a book for publication:  
&n-10(subtracts 10 from the total number of pages displayed)  
&p+120(adds 120 to the current page number)  
&fthe file name  
&dthe current date (&d for abbreviated form, &D for long form)  
&ithe module name (in multitrack mode, the module name is replaced by the name of each instrument  
&kthe capo position  
&bthe designed bitmap (see below)  
&ltext that follows this code is to be left justified  
&rtext that follows this code is to be right justified  
&ctext that follows this code is to be centered  
&tthe title of the song  
&sthe sub-title of the song  
&mthe comments  
&1text that follows this code is to be formatted with font #1  
&2text that follows this code is to be formatted with font #2 etc...  

Please note that the codes &r, &l and &c cause a carriage return in the header. This can, in some cases, be useful. For example the string "&cfirst &csecond &cthird" will give the following result:
first
second
third
