Toolbar - Create Ellipse (and other drawing tools)

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

An end user added the “Create Ellipse” smarticon to one of their toolbars and it is always greyed out. I don’t know where in Notes a drawing tool can be used, so does anyone know why these icons are available to add to toolbars? If they can be used, where/how can you use them? I thought it may be related to the hotspots, but no luck.

Thanks,

Brad

From Domino Designer Help:

CreateEllipse @Command

Lets you create an ellipse in a navigator. After you invoke the command, the cursor changes to a crosshair when you start to drag the mouse in the design area. You create an ellipse by dragging the mouse until the ellipse is the size you want.

Syntax

@Command( [CreateEllipse] )

Usage

A navigator must be open in Design mode.

This command does not work on the Web.

THANKS Ian!

I never even thought about looking at the Designer Help, since the end user question regarded the client and I normally don’t use navigators in my designs.

Thanks again!
