Walkthrough: Using Comments
You might of noticed that when you load up the Sample List, that there is a Comments
Window that popped up. It looked like this:
The Comment Window when you load the Sample List
How can you change the Comment? or even have it so that there are no Comments? That
is easy. There are several ways to edit the Comment. As you can see from the above
screenshot, you can press the "Edit Comment" Button from the bottom of the window.
This will take you the the Comment Editing window. If the Comment window is not
displayed when you load a .VAN file, one way that you can edit it, is either, select
the "Comment" button in the toolbar, or press File->Edit Comment from the Pull Down
menu in Vanilla. What happens when you go to the Comments Window? Well. the following
window appear:
The Comment Window is fully resizable to your needs. There are a few buttons on
top of this window:
Clean Up - Cleans up text if you past from places like .nfo files. (The same way
that it does with your descriptions)
Paste - Pastes the current contents of the Clipboard into the Comment.
Clear Text - Clears the Comment
Cancel - Closes the Window, but you will loose all changes created since this window was
opened
Save Changes - Saves what you've added to the Comment and then goes back to the
main Vanilla Window
Once you have set your comment, every time you reload the .VAN file, it will display
the Comment
What if I don't want to have any comments in my List?
This is really simple. Just go to the Comments Window, and press the "Clear Text"
Button, and then Save. Then there won't be any comments displayed when the list is loaded up again.
