You can use messages in Mind Express. A message can consist of a series of symbols, text or both.
There are a number of ways in which the user can copy content from a message to the memory of a cell and later retrieve this content from the memory to the message:
| Action | Description | Settings |
|---|---|---|
| Save in cell | The user first chooses Save in cell to copy the message, and then chooses an empty cell to paste the message into the cell (the user can use this cell to do it all again). The entire text is merged into one label and only the first three pictures are pasted. The user can also cancel this action if the Cancel save action is available. | |
| Save as | The user chooses Save as and selects a cell that is not empty to save the message in the cell's memory. (The Open as action can be used to open the saved message again in the message box.) | |
| Open as | (The user selects Save as and chooses a cell that is not empty to save the message in the cell's memory). The Open as action can be used to open the saved message again in the message box. The user can also cancel this action if the Cancel save action is available. | |
| Save as 'x' | Using the Save as 'x' action the user saves the message in the cell's memory where 'x' is a user-defined name. At a later time, user can open the message by choosing the cell with the Open 'x' action, where 'x' is the same name as the one specified by the user. | In the Specify a name field, you enter the same name as the name you enter in the analog field next to the cell with Open 'x' action. |
| Open 'x' | The user opens a previously saved message in the cell using the Save as 'x' action, where the same name was specified for 'x'. | In the Specify a name field, you enter the same name as the name you enter in the analog field next to the cell with Save as 'x' action. |
| Save in cell with ID | The user copies the message and immediately pastes it into the cell with the specified ID. The entire text is merged into one label and only the first three pictures are pasted. | In the Specify the cell ID field, you enter the ID of the cell the message is to be copied to when the user selects the cell with the Save in cell with ID action. |
| Cancel save | The user cancels the Save as or Save in cell actions. |
