1. Workflow for adding clips. Working with an Ecco file. Inside ecco, select an item. you can edit/add MV page to that item using winkey + "?" or right click ">" button in MV pane, or control+shift+L from within MV or MV menu File > Load > at active item. you don't have to do that unless you want to add or edit THAT ITEM. from browser (for example) winkey+F12 brings up MV menu you can add selection to active MV page, or as new MV item, or if selection is URL, add url's page as new item in ecco, or make selection ecco item text & full page as MV page with 'Selection's Page > to new item'. winkey + Shift + E is shortcut for copy selection as new MV item in ecco. (win+Shift+G for saving graphics locally) ... etc.... from within MV pane F1 is help... basic concepts include: MagicView's default set-up is to 'thumbtack' page views. That is, the page view will not update when you change focus of the ecco outline item, unless you expressly update (for example Winkey + ?). To activate the quickview mode, you can press Winkey + Q. If you want to to keep word specific formatting such as page footers, etc. you'll need to stick with attaching the document (dragging the .doc file into the Item Text box), and if desired, then pressing Alt+G to 'ground' the file-- include it within the file's .web folder (instead of working with the file from where ever it was dragged, which also works). MagicView provides control over specifically how, what, and where selections can be clipped. The array of options can seem overwhelming at first. It becomes much more clear once the basic concepts are understood. > FIRST ASPECT -- WHERE TO CLIP TO < MagicView can accept clips which: (1) Replace the existing viewpage's content, (2) Append to the existing viewpage or (3) Create an entirely new viewpage (either at the current ecco item selection or into a special webclip folder). > SECOND ASPECT -- WHAT TO CLIP < MagicView can clip based on: (A) clipping the selection which is currently marked, (B) clipping the marked selection as the clip title and clipping the entire webpage where the marked text is found, or (C) clipping the webpage found at the address in the currently selected text. > THIRD ASPECT -- TO SAVE COPIES OF GRAPHICS OR NOT < Additionally you can clip: (i) without making local copies of clipped graphics or (ii) with saved copies of any graphics in the clipped page/selection. Becoming familiar with these three aspects and distinct options will significantly clarify the clipping menu (Winkey + F12 or Universal Right-Left Click [activated from right click on MagicView tray icon]). There are also some specialty 'ecco text' clips providing additional powers, the ability to clip from the screen to MagicView or to Ecco directly, and the ability to 'capture' a webpage clip in order to 'manually' paste it into ecco. If you have a grasp of the three aspects above, and walk through the clip menu, you will quickly master it. (* THE FOURTH DIMENSION -- PHYSICAL STORAGE OPTIONS *) Clips (and parts of them) can be stored either inside of the .eco file, or in an external .web folder stored in the same location as the .eco file: (i) Clips including graphics can be stored internally inside Ecco as "MHT" format. One big downside with "MHT format clips is the loss of most MV editing capabilities. (ii) Modestly sized files, PDFs, graphics, "MHT" format clips, etc., work seamlessly when stored internally in Ecco, and automatically update with synced ecco's (although they do use up extra memory space and pointers). As the size of internally stored files gets larger, loading time significantly increases. Large (even huge) files, graphics, etc., work seamlessly from the .web folder and can be synced with other users on the network via network folder sync tools. (iii) For most users storing pages, graphics and files (such as PDF, MHT, DjVu, EML, ZIP, etc.) in the .web folder is the best option. Pages and files can thus be globally searched by desktop search programs, and the .eco file size is kept very small. However, if you want to search for content inside of Ecco, storing pages (although not graphics, and files) inside of ecco is necessary). (iv) Viewpages (stored internally or externally) and internally stored graphics, MHT, and all other files can be seamlessly and securely encrypted with MagicView AES encryption. Externally stored graphics, files, MHT pages, etc., can be encrypted by encrypting the files using Windows file encryption on files individually or by encrypting the entire .web directory with Windows folder encryption. Note that while MagicView can very securely encrypt your data inside of the .eco file, viewing the stored materials is not particularly secure and can be 'spied on' if there is active spyware software grabbing screen shots, tracking disk sector changes, etc. 2.
