Arranging Topics

Moderator1 — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 09:49:46 GMT

When Topics are shown, you can arrange them on the screen to your liking. When you show a Topic window, it should appear in roughly the same position and size as the last time it was shown.

Moving and resizing

To move a Topic on the screen, drag it by either its title bar or status bar to a new position.
To resize a Topic, click and drag the perimeter of the Topic window.

Changing color

To change the color of a displayed Topic, select Change Color from the Topic’s wrench menu. Note that you cannot select a specific color; instead, Filer toggles the color among a handful of available choices.

Docking

You can dock a Topic to the outer perimeter of the Outlook window. A docked Topic remains fixed in its relative position on the perimeter of the window as you move and resize the Outlook window. Filer may also dock Topics automatically when you show them.

To dock a Topic, move its window close to the perimeter of the Outlook window (it will snap into place).
To undock a Topic, move it away from the Outlook window.

Stacking Topics

You can stack shown Topics to conserve space on the screen. The message list is displayed only for the selected Topic in the stack. A stack can be moved, resized, and docked.

To stack Topics, drag one Topic on top of another Topic (or stack of Topics).
To select a Topic in the stack, click its title bar.
To remove a Topic from a stack, move the Topic off of the stack by dragging its title bar.
To resize the stack, drag the perimeter of the stack.
To close the entire stack, click the button; closing a stack closes all Topics in the stack.
