Creating Schemes

You can use either of the following methods to create a custom scheme:

• Create schemes for individual categories in the Session Profile dialog box (accessible from the Options menu).
• Use the Customize Session Properties dialog box (accessible from the Tools menu) to customize the Session Profile dialog box that displays in the session window. Using this dialog box, you can create, select, rename and save Session Properties schemes. You can also create new categories, rename property captions, rearrange properties and categories, and delete properties from a scheme.

To create a scheme using the Session Profile dialog box:

Using the Session Profile dialog box, you can create settings schemes for the following categories: color, font, keyboard, hotspots, mouse, sound, events, shortcuts, and track menu.

1. On the Options menu, click Session Properties. The Session Profile dialog box opens.
2. Open the desired folder (for example, to create a color scheme, open the Color folder).
3. Modify the options that you want to change.

   Note:

   You may need to select a different tab within the folder to access specific options.

4. Click Save Scheme As. Enter a name for the scheme in the Save Scheme As dialog box.
5. Click OK.

To create a Session Properties scheme:

You can use Session Properties schemes to customize the Session Profile dialog box in a profile. For example, you could create a single folder that contains only the categories that you need for that profile.

1. On the Tools menu, click Customize Session Properties. The Customize Session Properties dialog box opens.
2. Click New. Enter a name for the scheme in the New Scheme dialog box, and then click OK.

   Note:

   Select Start with Defaults if you want to use the default session properties configuration as a basis for the scheme that you want to create.

3. Click the Customize tab.
4. Do one of the following:
5. • In the Custom Scheme Name area, right-click a category to access the context menu, which lets you create new categories, rename property captions, and delete properties from the selected scheme.
   • Drag and drop a property from the Default Scheme Name area to the Custom Scheme Name area.
5. When finished, click OK.
