Right Mouse Options in Maintenance Mode

If you point to a line within a guideline in Maintenance mode and right click, you have the following options:

  • Edit - Make changes to existing lines
  • Font - Font type, style, size and colour can be set for the selected line. Even lines of the same category can have individual settings.
  • Background Colour - The background colour be set for each line.
  • Properties - The properties of each line can be set individually. The Level determines whether specific lines listed under a sub-heading can be hidden or expanded by selecting the sub-heading. Initially expanded lines display when the guideline is first opened.
    See Properties for details.
  • Note - This setting makes no difference on printed reports which will always include all lines. Level 1 entries must be initially expanded to allow Level 2 headings underneath to be initially expanded as well. Selectable lines can be highlighted and printed individually.

  • Increase/Decrease Font Size - These options reduce or increase the font size quickly.
  • Category Defaults - Font, Background colour and the settings for Initially Expanded, Word Wrap and Selectable are all specific to each category (for example, Patient Data, Sub-heading, Text), and are saved in a default file. You have two options:
    • Get Category Defaults - This enables you to reset the selected line to the default settings.
      Note - Level and Indent are not saved as category defaults.
    • Save as Category Defaults - This lets you save the changes made to an individual line as a new default
      Note - This will affect all existing guidelines with these lines as well, ie any existing guidelines where the lines have not been changed from the default settings will display the changes made. It is therefore advisable to use this feature with great caution.
  • Add - Also available from floating toolbar in Maintenance Mode.
    See Floating Design Toolbar for details.
  • Delete - To delete a line from guideline, either:
    • Highlight it and select Delete on the floating toolbar, or
    • Right click on it and select Delete.
  • Plan Header - The header is initially set for a new or copied guideline. It can be updated at any time to change the mnemonic or description, add or update triggers, or make the guidelines or report into an index.
