AppleWorks 5 User’s Manual

When you create linked frames, keep in mind the following:

1

You can create linked frames in a word processing, spreadsheet, draw, or
database (in Layout mode) document but you can’t link frames in a paint
document.

1

You can link frames of the same type, but you can’t link frames of
different types. For example, you can’t link a text frame to a spreadsheet
frame.

1

You can link an existing frame to a new frame you create, but you can’t
link two existing frames to each other.

To link frames, select the arrow pointer

from the tool panel. (If you don’t see

the tool panel, choose Show Tools from the Window menu.) Then choose Frame
Links from the Options menu. Select the text

, spreadsheet

, or paint

tool from the tool panel and drag the pointer to draw a frame. Click once outside
the frame. (To draw a text frame in a word processing document or a spreadsheet
frame in a spreadsheet document, press Alt as you draw the frame.)

Click the continue indicator and then draw the next frame. After you draw
the frames, you can resize them, enter and edit information in them, and
arrange the linked frames in your document.

Viewing empty frames

Empty linked text frames do not show when you are

adding new ones. You can add a border by selecting the frame and choosing
a width from the pen width palette.

Working with movies

If you have QuickTime or Microsoft Video for Windows (AVI) installed in
your system, you can add movies to your documents, play them on the
screen, and make simple changes.

You can work with movies in word processing, draw, and spreadsheet
documents, and in multimedia fields and Layout mode of a database
document.
