Displaying Tick Marks
When working with the Annotation columns, it is useful to display tick marks on odd-numbered frames.
To display the tick marks, you must run a short script.
1. | From the top menu, select Windows > Script Editor. |
2. | From the Script Editor menu, select File > New Script. |
3. | Type in a name for your script and click OK. |
4. | In the File list, select the script you created. |
5. | On the right side of the view, type the following script: |
function display_tick_marks()
{
preferences
.setBool
("XSHEET
_ANNOTATION
_FRAME
_MARKER
", true
);
MessageLog
.trace
( preferences
.getBool
("XSHEET
_ANNOTATION_FRAME
_MARKER
", false
));
}
6. | Click Verify. |
The script is verified.
7. | From the File menu, select Play/Debug > Run. |
A dialog box opens with your script selected in the Files column.
8. | In the Functions column, select display_tick_marks and click OK. |
Tick marks appear on odd frames in the Annotation column.
