Pinboard and Screen Mode Changer

Purpose:


This example mini-application is to enable you to access a pinboard file and an appropriate screen mode with a single double-click.

It is a specimen application you can copy and rename to suit your needs.

The program, such that it is, is shareware.

Operation:


If you want, for example, a special set-up for working on web pages, you could copy/rename the application as !HTML.

Then, opening the application directory with a Shift/double-click, edit the file Mode so that the screen resolution you want to use is the one that is uncommented, that is, with the 'pipe' character (|) removed.

Then double-click on that Mode file to get into that screen mode, set up your pinboard how you would like it for web page work, and then save the Pinboard file into the application directory from the desktop Pinboard Save option.

Then, double-clicking on the !HTML application icon will put you into that screen mode and load the appropriate pinboard.

I keep my pinboard application folder in the bottom left position on all my pinboards, and it is here where the different pinboard applications reside.

The application icon sprite is renamed automatically by the Boot file, and this file, !Sprites, can be edited in Paint to have a different coloured pin-head for each different mini-application you create if you so wish.
