Control Library
The Control Library provides a convenient location for storing
customized or often-used controls. Simply select an object in
the Surface and copy it into the Control Library (Alt+drag or
right-click copy/paste). An icon for the control appears under the
selected category (default: daVinci Controls). The icon can be
re-named by selecting it, then clicking on the text. New category
files (.apl) may be created by right-clicking over the Control
Library.
When a category is selected, the available components appear
under the category heading. A vertical scroll bar will appear if all
available components in a category cannot be displayed. To
place a control, simply drag the icon into the Surface. When
Control Library changes are made, the affected category files
(.apl) are saved automatically (under Shared Documents).
A Menu icon (upper-right of title-bar) allows the Control Library
to be docked or floating, and to be hidden (closed) or to utilize
Auto Hide (if docked). The menu may also be accessed by
right-clicking over the Control Library. The thumb-tack allows
the Control Library to remain open (disables Auto Hide). To
close the Control Library, click on the "X" in the upper right
corner. The Control Library may again be opened by selecting a
category from the
Control Library Menu . It can also be
accessed via View Menu > Toolbars . It is not accessible during
actual control or test sessions
