| Summary |
Key Items are Headings, Tables, Fields, Selectors, Styles and Sheets. |
Key Items are the named entities in QuSheet which you use to specify what you want QuSheet to calculate and generate. |
When you are looking at a key item a menu item (the key item menu) appears on the menu bar named the same as the item type (e.g. Heading), plus a drop down list appears on the tool-strip bar to allow you to select which key item you wish to look at. Items appear in this drop-down list in italics if they are not currently in use (i.e. orphaned). |
The Key Item Menu (e.g. Heading) allows you to create a new key item, clone one, rename one or delete one. This menu also contains a Go To option duplicating the effects of the drop-down list on the tool-strip bar. |
Where key items refer to one another in display tables, a pop-up box comes up when you press F12 or right-click which allows you to create a new key item of the relevant type “in situ” – i.e. without navigating away. |
Deleting orphaned key items is safe. Deleting non-orphaned key items causes QuSheet to substitute the references to the dead key item with a suitable default. |
A: Note that the “z” styles, even though they may be orphaned, cannot be deleted, though they can be modified. |
