2+ used markup / editing sequences can be bundeled to Macros, which makes them
3+ one-click accessible via custom buttons in the Annotation Editor. A good example
4+ for a useful Macro is marking up the selected text as a paragraph and
5+ subsequently applying the structural normalization to the content of the newly
6+ created tag.</ font >
7+ < h4 > < font face ="Verdana "> The Macros Menu</ font > </ h4 >
8+ < font size ="2 " face ="Verdana "> The Macros menu is part of the Window menu in the
9+ GoldenGATE main window. It contains the functions for creating and managing
10+ Macros:</ font >
11+ < ul >
12+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Create:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Create
13+ a new Macro by entering an Annotation type and selecting a processor.</ font > </ li >
14+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Edit:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Open
15+ the Macro editor dialog.</ font > </ li >
16+ </ ul >
17+ < h4 > < font face ="Verdana "> The Edit Macros Dialog</ font > </ h4 >
18+ < font size ="2 " face ="Verdana "> The dialog for Macro management is accessible
19+ through the Edit function in the Macros menu. On the right of the dialog, a list
20+ displays all existing Macros. In the middle, it displays the parameters of the
21+ Macro currently selected in that list:</ font >
22+ < ul >
23+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Macro Label:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> The
24+ label text for the button representing the Macro in the Annotation Editor.</ font > </ li >
25+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Macro Tooltip:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> The
26+ tooltip text for the button representing the Macro in the Annotation Editor.
27+ This text should provide a one-sentence explanation of what the Macro
28+ vaguely does.</ font > </ li >
29+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> DocPart Type:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> The
30+ type of Document Part to create by the Macro.</ font > </ li >
31+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Open for Editing:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> < b >
32+ </ b > If checked, the newly created Document Part will be opened for editing
33+ after the processor of the Macro has finished. This is particularly useful
34+ for immediately correcting error of the processor, which is not too unlikely
35+ if the latter applies NLP.</ font > </ li >
36+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Processor:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Above
37+ the buttons, a label displays the type and name of the processor currently
38+ selected.</ font > </ li >
39+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> "Use ..." Buttons:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> < b >
40+ </ b > For every type of document processor accessible to GoldenGATE, a button
41+ exists which opens a dialog for selecting the processor from a list
42+ displaying all avalilable processors of the particular type.</ font > </ li >
43+ < li > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> < b > Summary:</ b > Below the buttons, a label
44+ provides a brief summary of what the Macro does in its current configuration.
45+ Since this summary is rather generic, it is not too appropriate as a tooltip
46+ in most cases, although the Macro editor uses it as a fallback if not
47+ explicit tooltip is given.</ font > </ li >
48+ </ ul >
49+ < font size ="2 " face ="Verdana "> At the top of the dialog, a line of
50+ buttons provides the functionality for managing the Macros:</ font >
51+ < ul >
52+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Create:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Open
53+ a sub-dialog for creating a new Macro by entering an Annotation type and selecting a
54+ processor.</ font > </ li >
55+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Clone:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Clone
56+ the Macro currently selected. This is pretty much the same as
57+ creating a new one, beside the fact that the parameters are copied.</ font > </ li >
58+ < li > < b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Delete:</ font > </ b > < font face ="Verdana " size ="2 "> Delete
59+ the Macro currently selected. The processor of the Macro will not be
60+ affected by this operation.</ font > </ li >
61+ </ ul >
62+ </ body > </ html >
