Moving Keynotes or Groups in a Keynote Database
Use this procedure to move a keynote, group, or subgroup to a different group
or level within the database hierarchy. Note that moving a group also moves
any subgroups and keynotes within that group.
1 Click Annotate tab ➤ Keynoting panel ➤ ➤ Keynote Editor
.
NOTE The rest of this procedure can also be performed from the
Select Keynote dialog box.
2 Select a database from the Keynote Database list.
3 Select the node (group, subgroup, or keynote) to move and drag
it to the desired location in the hierarchical tree view.
Specifying Sort Order for Keynotes
Use this procedure to specify the order in which keynotes in a given database
are listed when displayed in the Keynote Editor, the Select Keynote dialog
box, or keynote legends. To specify the sort order, you enter one or more
masks that correspond to the patterns used for keys in the database. Keynotes
are sorted on a field-by-field basis within each pattern. In other words, all
keynotes having the same key pattern as the first mask you enter will be listed
before any keynotes having the second pattern you enter.
When entering a mask, use the following conventions to represent the fields,
characters, and delimiters that comprise the key pattern:
â– Enclose sortable fields in brackets [ ] and delimiters in curly brackets { }.
Example: [field]{delimiter}[field].
â– Delimiters can be any character except a backslash (\) or any character
string that does not begin with a backslash. (The backslash is reserved for
system use.)
â– Use a pound sign (#) to indicate a numeric character and a question mark
(?) to indicate an alphanumeric character (digit, letter, or punctuation
mark).
â– For fixed-length fields, use the specified number of characters. Example:
[###] indicates a 3-digit fixed-length field.
