7. Click Word Wrap, and select whether to wrap text that doesn't fit on a single line on the
selected Popup Page (Yes or No). If you select No, any text that won't fit on the selected Popup

Displaying a Video Source on a Popup Page

TPDesign4 allows you to assign a video source as the background image on a Page, Popup Page or
Button.
To apply a video fill to a Popup Page:
1. Select (or a create) a Popup Page in your project.
2. In the Properties Control window - States Tab, click Video Fill to activate the drop-down list of
available video sources (Source 1-4). If you are working with an existing popup page with
buttons, be sure to click on the popup page (not on a button) to bring up the State Properties for
the popup page, and not a button on the popup page.
3. Select a video source from the list to apply the video fill to the popup page.

Replacing States On a Page, Popup Page or Button

Replacing is a powerful way to populate the states of a button, page, or popup page, and can be
accomplished either through the clipboard or by drag-and-drop:
Replacing States From the Clipboard:
1. First select the button, page, or popup page whose states will be copied. From the State
Manager window, select the source states. Hold down the Ctrl key while left-clicking to add
states to the selection. Hold down the Shift key while left-clicking to add a range of states to
the selection.
2. When the source states have been selected, copy them to the clipboard by selecting either
Edit > Copy, State Manager Context Menu > Copy , or the Ctrl-C keyboard accelerator.
3. With the source states copied to the clipboard, select the Multi-General or Multi-Bargraph
button whose states will be replaced.
4. Select the destination states. The power of Replace is in its ability to handle sets of destination
states unequal in number to the set of source states.
80
If the number of destination states is equal to the number of source states, the destination
states are replaced one-for-one from the clipboard.
If the number of destination states is less than the number of source states, the destination
states are replaced one-for-one until all have been replaced, with remaining source states
being unused.
If the number of destination states is greater than the number of source states, the
destination states are replace one-for-one until all source states have been used, at which
point replacing will start again at the beginning of the source states until all destination
states have been replaced.
