<App Text>

You can use the <App Text> command to specify a text string that Apple Guide displays in the upper-left corner of a Full Access window.

<App Text> string

string

A text string, no longer than 64 characters, that helps identify this guide file (for example, the application's name) to the user.

DESCRIPTION

Apple Guide displays the string defined by the <App Text> command in the upper-left corner of a Full Access window. It displays this string in 16-point Espy Serif Bold; no other font or style options are available. You typically use this command only if you do not want to provide a graphic of your application's logo.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

The <App Text> command should appear once at most in your source files for a specific guide file. If you omit this command (and the <App Logo> command), Apple Guide displays the default access window background in the upper-left corner of the Full Access window.

You should specify either the <App Logo> or <App Text> command for your guide file, but not both.

EXAMPLES

<App Text> "SurfWriter Guide"
