;%20onClick=popItUp(512,348,'Pre_2_1_neu.jpg');) | Using the button New one can start compiling a new presentation which appears in the Presentation Editor. The new presentation is automatically given the title “New presentation / [user’s name]”. This can be altered in the name box. Information on the presentation can be entered in the box Description.

;%20onClick=popItUp(512,348,'Pre_2_2_neu.jpg');) | Rights The rights for reading, writing and deleting for individual users or groups can be allocated in the area Rights. One can add a row in which the rights can be allocated by clicking on the button Add. The persons or groups holding the rights can be defined using the pull down menu “who?”. N.B.: Thereby – especially before saving for the first time – first the group of users must be defined and, second, the individual users (see next screenshot)! With the buttons Up, Down the sequence of the rows can be altered. | |
;%20onClick=popItUp(512,348,'Pre_2_3_neu.jpg');) | The corresponding rights are defined using the check boxes “R”, “W” and “D” on the right next to the pull down menu. “R” (read) = reading permitted. “W” (write) = writing permitted, i.e. it is permitted to make alterations within the presentation. “D” (delete) = deletion permitted. The respective rights are determined by setting a tick mark in the check box. N.B.: “W” and “R” are automatically also set by selectiong “D”, and “R” is automatically also set by selecting “W”. The lowest row is removed by using the Remove button. The button Undo reverses all alterations. | |
;%20onClick=popItUp(512,348,'Pre_2_4_neu.jpg');) | Various buttons are situated underneath the rights management. Name, description and the definition of the rights can be verified with Save. The images contained in a presentation are saved automatically. Therefore it is not necessary to save the presentation again after the images have been adopted for the presentation. N.B.: On deleting an image in the presentation the deletion is automatically saved and cannot be reversed! Delete = deletes the entire presentation. Presentation = starts the presentation. Show = displays the images saved in the file in the list of results. | |
;%20onClick=popItUp(512,348,'Pre_2_5_neu.jpg');) | The images of the presentation are positioned underneath. There is no restriction regarding the number of images integrated in a presentation nor repetitions thereof. The images are organized in image rows, each containing two images. The right-hand side is to be left empty if one wishes to present only single images. In order to adopt images from Census’ stock of images, the final position of the image within the presentation must be selected first by clicking on the destined image position in the desired image row. After doing so, click on the small arrow on the top right of the thumbnail in the view of the results, and the image will be inserted in the current position of the presentation. Thereby the current position will shift within the presentation and a new image row be automatically created on demand. | |
