To insert the play list:

1. Select the label into which you are going to insert the play list.

2. Choose the Insert-->Play List command. The Editor opens the Insert Playlist dialog as shown in example below.

3. When you click OK, the mouse cursor appears as a crosshair, which includes the list icon, so that you can place the list onto the Work Area. If you press Esc before dropping the list to the cover, or select either the drawing tool or any menu command, the operation cancels.

Note: You can place text and formulas into the edit string. To distinguish a text from formula the latter is closed in braces. You can arrange text and formulas in the any order. If you insert a list, the first formula should be a list identifier and it should be unique.
