Last Error
Choosing Last Error from the Special menu displays the last message that
appeared in the Title Bar for the Workbench. Messages that appear in the Title
Bar normally disappear as
soon
as
you select something on
the Workbench
.
(For
explanations of error numbers that appear in the Title
Bar,
see
Appendix B,
"AmigaDOS
Messages.
")
Redraw
Choosing Redraw redraws
some
or
all
of what appears in the Workbench
screen.
Should
a
tool malfunction
and
disturb what
appears
in the Workbench
screen,
choosing
Redraw may restore the
screen
.
Snapshot
Choosing Snapshot
saves on
disk the positions
of
currently selected icons. It
also
saves
the
sizes
and the positions
of
windows that
appear when you open any of
the disk or drawer icons that are
selected. (Note,
however, that the positions
of
unselected icons within those windows
are
not
saved.)
Of
course,
to
save
this
information on disk, the write-protect tab
on
the diskette must be "covered" to
make the disk write-enabled.
You can take a snapshot of more than
one
icon at
a
time by using
Extended
Selection
,
which is explained on the next page.
Version
Choose Version to display the internal version number
of
the Workbench in the
Workbench Title Bar. This version number is important
only
for
software
developers
and support
personnel
.
