Examples
There are a number of files provided with the system, which can inspected and used.
OurWorld
This is only a practice for marking up - the URLS don't exist.
Starting in the parent directory, if you load the image file :-
"eg_pics/ourworld.rppm". - If you have the photo widget.
"eg_pics/cyclohexene.xbm" - If you have only monochrome.
Practice drawing round parts of the background image.
For a full guide see
Recommended Method of Working.
After each one you will be asked for a URL and comments - just type something
short. After 2-3 markups, Save the Map file - it should ask you for a default
URL (for the background) and then for a mapfile name.
After this has finished, press "New" under the File menu.
This clears the canvas.
If you now press the Load Map button, and using the browser select the mapfile
you saved you should be offered the chance to read the image file as well.
Say YES. the picture should be exactly where you left off. Mark up a few more
fish and Save Map again.
Now try deleting some of the shapes - select a shape and then press the
Delete Selected button under the Edit menu. Try saving again.
(We don't yet have an UNDO, sorry).
Also you can try editing polygons - select a shape and click the move-points
button,the add-points button or the delete-points button.
Remember to Save.
HIV genome
Here there is a fully marked up map.
If you go to html directory, the URLs in there are live - Some point
externally .
Load genome.map and when offered to load the image (genome.rppm) say YES.
(Alternatively load genome1.map).
Now, if you select an object the Test_URL button should become active.
Press this and the browser will be called, pointing to the relevant file.
