EscapeE Professional editions only
Existing IDF documents can be used like templates and re-purposed, without changing the original documents. The control file which built the IDF document can be edited in the IDF coding page of Console notebook. An area defined as a field may be treated as a clip region and copied to an IDF document.
There are hints to help novice Users get started in IDF editing tips; dip into the IDF when you need to add a new feature (see Elements and Attributes, Notes and Samples). |
