Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Three–An Example


How to introduce the cast of characters


So we just learned how to display an image with the IB item Title being included.

Let’s use that to introduce the people involved in the case.

  1. Open your IB and add in the three video still captures of Sam Smith, Jim White and Sally Nealey.
  2. Edit the item’s Titles in the IB to reflect what we want displayed.

Your IB should look something like this:

Part3_AnExample

Now let’s set the individual item properties.  (They will be the same for each.)

  • Change the size in the display representation area.  Centered in the upper two-thirds.
  • Check the box for Show item title.
  • Center the item title box in the lower one-third.
  • Change the Item title font properties, similar to our earlier Headings properties.

(I created a template to keep them looking the same.)

Your Item Properties should look something like this:

Part3_AnExample_Properties



I have exported the IB as it exists at this point in the process.  It is available as Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Three - An Example.  This can be downloaded and imported into your case and will not overwrite your existing IB.

Please post any questions here as comments; remember, if you have a question so does someone else.  I will try to answer them as quickly as possible.

Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Four: Side-by-Side Document Pages


How to display two pages in a side-by-side view

This set will require several changes to the default layout properties.

First, let’s get the images added to our IB. 

(I am using page three of the DocID:1 (Employee Handbook) and page one of the DocID:21 (Employment Agreement).  I also annotated both pages by drawing a yellow rectangle around the “Medical Benefits” paragraphs.  (I used the Image/Image view to see both images at the same time, but that is not necessary.)  See bottom of this write-up for my screen.)

  1. Display DocID:1, page three and use the drag-drop icon to add it to the IB.
  2. Then display DocID:21, page one and use the drag-drop icon to add that to the IB.

Your IB should look something like this:

Part4Side-by-sideIB

Second, we need to set the IB item Properties for these two items.

  1. Open the properties for the first image and make these changes:
    1. Right-click in the display area and choose “Left 1/2”.
    2. In the Run Next Item area; choose the “Immediately run next item” option.
  2. Open the properties for the second image and make these changes:
    1. In the Previous Item Clear area; choose “Clear none”.
    2. Right-click in the display area and choose “Right 1/2”.
    3. In the Run Next Item area; choose the “Do not run next item” option.


Test this portion of your IssueBuilder

Enable CourtViewer mode. 

Select the first image, then right-click and choose “Run”.



I have exported the IB as it exists at this point in the process.  It is available as Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Four - Side-by-Side Document Pages.  This can be downloaded and imported into your case and will not overwrite your existing IB.

Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Three–Single Document Page

How to display a single page of a document

For this item we will use page one of the Employee Handbook, DocID 1.

  1. Display page one of the Employee Handbook in the Image view.
  2. Use the drag-and-drop icon to drag this image to the IssueBuilder.
    1. Optionally, create a Heading to make it easier to find specific portions in your IB.
    2. The Drag-and-Drop icon looks like this:Drag-And-DropIcon
  3. Edit this Item’s Title to indicate it is Page One of the Employee Handbook.
    1. Right-click on the item and choose Edit.
    2. Change the heading description to reflect this is page one, ala “Employee Handbook, Page One”.
    3. Click Ok.
  4. Optionally, in the Item’s Properties page, make the following changes:
    1. In the White area representing the screen layout, drag the right-side handler square 1/3 of the way to the left.  This will leave some space on the right side of the screen.
    2. Check the box to Show item title.
    3. Drag that box to empty area in the upper right portion of the layout window.


I have exported the IB as it exists at this point in the process.  It is available as Demonstration IssueBuilder, Part Three - Single Document Page.  This can be downloaded and imported into your case and will not overwrite your existing IB.
