Current program menus

Note: the option names highlighted in red below are saved each time the program closes.

File menu

Open|F3 - load a template into the editor
Save - save the current template (Be careful! recommend using 'Save As' until you have tested a reload)
Save As|F2 - save the current template to a different filename
The last file opened will appear at the bottom of this menu to facilitate a quick restart

If you have edited a master set to the point where it will no longer load , you can retrieve a fresh copy of it from the 'defaults' folder¹⁾

Edit menu

<html>Template mode</html> - Edit a template (assumes no data entry)
<html>Record mode</html> - Create a record (assumes no changes to template)
Hide empty fields - TBA; in Record mode, remove rows that do not contain data entry
Search bar|F4 - open (or close) the search panel at the bottom of the window

View menu

Expand/Collapse All - Fully expand (or collpase) the RIMMF hierarchy
<html>Expand By Level</html> - expand the grid to a precise level
<html>Highlight by level</html> - Experimental - change the font, style, etc., slightly for each level
<html>Gridlines</html> - Enable the display of gridlines; this may make it easier to see what you are doing
<html>Wordwrap</html> - Turn on wordwrap in either or both of the 'RDA Element' and 'Text' columns. Note: recommend only doing this in the text column, and using the mouseover on the RDA column to view the complete caption.
Restore view defaults - Reset the following column settings: visibility, order, width, sorted.

Options

<html>Brief captions</html> - Show only brief captions (the complete caption will be shown when the mouse hovers over an 'RDA Element' cell). Note there are two caption columns; one contains the complete RDA caption and the other contains a brief version of it.
<html>Check lists on startup</html> - Goto metadataregistry.org and refresh all value lists when the program starts
<html>Font</html> - Change the Font on the form
Un-Tree - Use in Template mode if you want to see all of the columns for branch (or group) nodes; this option will try to flatten the tree into a grid, so to speak.
Renumber nodes - Programmer's use only (will be removed once its debugged)

Help

<html>One-click help</html> - if selected simply clicking on an RDA Element caption will browse to the rule for that element (if there is one); otherwise, the browser will only launch when you press <F1>. Note: one-click Help will browse to the rule–if one exists–even if no rule is visible in the RDA Rule column (as for group/branch nodes)
<html>Use built-in browser</html> - if selected the program will use its own browser window for RDA Help. This may eliminate problems with the RDA Toolkit messages about 'subscription limit' reached, as the built-in browser always loads each page into the same window. If using the built-in browser, use the 'Next/Prev' buttons at the bottom of the form to navigate through your history list; the arrow buttons from the toolkit (at the top of the page) do not work inside this frame.
