RapidRemark Manager > Adding new RapidRemarks

Use the navigation pane (Table of Contents) to open the folder you would like your new RapidRemark to be stored in. If a folder does not exist, click to the previous level and use the “New Folder…” button to create a folder. Once you’ve established a storage location, press “New RapidRemark…” to start a new RapidRemark.

You will be asked to name the RapidRemark; this text is what is displayed in the library pane of the WhisperReporter main screen and the text that is searched when using the auto-paste feature. Be sure to include as many keywords as you can. Once the RapidRemark is named, the text editor will be enabled and you can type or copy/paste in the RapidRemark text. You also have the opportunity to use any of the available features of the toolbar. RapidRemarks can contain tables, tags, picklists, bulleted lists, cloakable text, etc. You are also given the additional option of setting custom margins and page orientation for your RapidRemark using the “PgProps” button; however, these are used for previewing only and not use when inserted into a topic since it is the Chapter Layout which dictates margins and page orientation.

Other ways to quickly add a RapidRemark:

•You can use the [Ctrl] + F4 keyboard shortcut on a highlighted paragraph to automatically open the RapidRemark Manager, navigate to the current topic, auto-fill the RapidRemark name dialog and add the highlighted text to the RapidRemark text editor.

•You can drag a highlighted paragraph into a RapidRemark folder in the RapidRemark panel to automatically open the RapidRemark Manager, navigate to the current topic, auto-fill the RapidRemark name dialog and add the highlighted text to the RapidRemark text editor.

Any new RapidRemark folders that are created need to be associated with a RapidRemark View so that they are available in topics where they are needed. This is all done in the RapidRemark View Manager.
