So try this. Make five or six button. Put two images in each button, for example book and clock, water and cup, walk and shoes, milk and straw, lotion and music. Now select all the button and shuffle. You will see that the pairs do not stay together. Very annoying. <BR/><BR/>What I mean by a "pop out" is when I am making multiple boards by changing the "print setup" to say, 32 by 32 inches, and I want to see just one board full size on my screen (so I don't spell something wrong or mess up the details) I have to go to view and then scroll to that board, which is hard on a laptop. It would be nice to hit something keyboard short cut and have the board I am looking at in miniature pop up larger automatically.<BR/><BR/>Also what I meant by text automatically adjusting is that in symbol finder I wish there was an "automatic" choice among the font choices that allowed made the title of the symbol fit in the button at the largest size without overspilling the sides of the button.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for taking our suggestions!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05513289226118469583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798368475920876945.post-49746914507516473662008-02-20T09:49:00.000-05:002008-02-20T09:49:00.000-05:00Thanks for putting out these great suggestions. W...Thanks for putting out these great suggestions. We’re always interested to hear what people want next that will make their lives easier and more productive.<BR/><BR/>I wanted to point out at least one thing that Boardmaker v6 can already do that was on your list. The swap buttons and shuffle buttons commands do work on buttons with multiple images as long as those buttons are the same size. Hopefully that’s helpful to you.<BR/><BR/>Also, you mentioned making the font all the same on a board. Right now, you are able to select all buttons on a board and change the font on all the buttons at one time. However, if you have text that is not on a button, you are not able to select that at the same time, so you have to do that separately.<BR/><BR/>When you are installing the sign language symbols, you can choose whether to install ASL or SEE. However, if you have them both installed, you are correct, there isn’t an easy way to choose between them. That’s a great suggestion.<BR/><BR/>Could you explain what you meant by a tool that would “pop out” one board. It kind of sounds like previewing what the board will look like in Use mode, but maybe I’m not understanding the idea.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the suggestions!<BR/><BR/>Bob Geenen<BR/>Director of Product Development<BR/>Mayer-Johnsongeenenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346851321497033895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798368475920876945.post-31590486797600023472008-02-18T22:11:00.000-05:002008-02-18T22:11:00.000-05:00The ability to rotate a symbol and the word with i...The ability to rotate a symbol and the word with it so that you can mae folding items (like cards, etc.) would be great too.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16648888974105518203noreply@blogger.com
