Excerpts from netnews.comp.soft-sys.andrew: 17-Nov-92 help with insets Brian Keck@castor.trl.OZ (828) > I'm a beginner at ez, zip, et al, & have got stuck. > I'm trying to insert (zip inset) a picture in a text file (ez). > It basically works, but I get too much white space. > I'm hoping someone can tell me how to avoid it. Unfortunately zip is not really designed for what most people want it for... It's primarily a hierarchical drawing editor/viewer. (Basically meaning that it lets you make/look at a drawing at various levels of detail.) To avoid the whitespace there are two things you must do. First , make the drawing occupy the entire visible space of the zip while the composition tools are in place. Second, resize the inset in browse mode until you are satisfied. (The month object apparently wants to be square(?)) Hope this helps, -Rob Ryan Andrew Consortium
