QUICK TIPS FOR USING COOKWORKS
While you'll love the simplicity of CookWorks, here are some quick
tips that will make using CookWorks even easier:
DRAG-AND-DROP
You can drag-and-drop items with your mouse to create a personal
menu or shopping list. From the Recipe View, select a recipe,
press and hold down the left mouse button, drag the recipe onto
the Personal Menu or Shopping List toolbar button, and then
release the mouse button. Similar drag-and-drop features are
available in the Table of Contents and Menu Views as well.
RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON
Click your right mouse button any time the Tools icon is available
to quickly bring up the Tools menu. Tools let you add items to a
personal menu or shopping list, print, change the number of
servings, and access Related Items.
RELATED ITEMS
Often a selected recipe will have menus or other recipes
associated with it. When this is the case, a yellow
index card appears on the Tools icon to indicate that there
are related items available. To view the items, choose Related
Items from the Tools menu. Choosing the Back button will return
you to the recipe you originally selected.
INFO BUTTON
After selecting a recipe, choose the Info button to see quick
preparation tips and new variations to try. The information
appears in the window on the right side of your screen. When the
Info button is completely gray, no additional information is
available.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
To quickly find a recipe or menu by name, choose the Table of
Contents toolbar button. Using the Table of Contents, you can
also see a list of all the categories or of all recipes with
photos.
GRAY ICON BUTTONS
Gray icon buttons are the program's way of letting you know that
a particular option is not currently available for selection.
IMPROVING PHOTO DISPLAY QUALITY
The photographs in CookWorks will automatically adjust to display
modes ranging from 16 colors to 16 million colors. You may be
able to improve the quality of the photograph display by
increasing the number of colors that are displayed, but this will
depend on the video board and the display driver you have selected
in Windows Setup.
Today, most video boards are capable of displaying 256 colors
(8 bit), while certain newer boards have the ability to display
up to 16 million colors (24 bit or True Color). However, some
older boards can only display 16 colors. If you are unsure about
the capabilities of your particular video board, we suggest you
contact the manufacturer of the board, or your computer dealer.
TO EXIT AND BEGIN USING COOKWORKS
To close this README file and begin using CookWorks, choose
File - Exit, or double-click on the gray box in the top left
corner of the window. You may return to this Quick Tips section
anytime by choosing the Help button in CookWorks, and selecting Quick Tips
from the General Information section.
