When working in a picture source you can code the picture directly or code the text in the picture log (if there is one).
Click and drag on the picture to select the required region.
On the Code menu, click Code Selection.
Choose whether you want to code at new or existing nodes. Refer to Coding at Existing Nodes and Coding at New Nodes for more information.
If you view coding highlight (by clicking the Highlight option on the View menu) you can see the coded area of the picture:
Coding for the selected node is displayed with a yellow highlight |
|
You can adjust the shading density of the coded picture region. Refer to Adjusting Picture Region Shading for more information. |
|
Select the required log text.
On the Code menu, click Code Selection.
Choose whether you want to code at new or existing nodes.
When you code a portion of the picture, the associated log text is also indirectly coded, this is called shadow coding.
For example, if you code the picture and display coding stripes you can see the shadow coding on the log:
Coding for the selected node is displayed with a yellow highlight |
|
The shadow coding is displayed as a lighter coding stripe
Click on the Log tab to see what has been coded (or shadow coded) in the picture log. |
To hide shadow coding:
On the View menu, click the Shadow Coding option.
