The Page Editor
The Page Editor is where you will build and edit the webpages that will make up your website. Virtually everything on the page is fully customizable and editable to ensure that you can make your pages as unique as you wish. When you have finished creating your webpage simply select the 'tick' in the Page Controls Editor.
Every object on the page has its own editor. When these editors are in view they can be moved to a more convenient place on the page simply by click/dragging the title bar of the editor, i.e. clicking on it, holding the mouse button down whilst dragging the object.
If you wish to see information on a particular editor, please click on the appropriate option from the list below:
- Text Editor

To edit or manipulate an object, hover your mouse pointer over the object and a Control Bar will pop up. This has a series of buttons in a horizontal bar. The first five options are identified in every editor with the exception of the Page Properties editor.
Edit- This will open the object in the relevant editor so that you can make detailed changes to it.
Properties- This will bring up a menu of the objects properties, as well as the option required to "float" the item so that it can be positioned accurately on screen.
Delete- This will remove the object from the page.
New- This will insert a new object above or below the currently selected item.
Help- This will display a help page relevant to the object.

At all times whilst using the page editor, there is a Page Control bar on the page. You can move this to anywhere of your choice simply by click/dragging i.e. clicking on it, holding the button down whilst dragging the object. The Page Control Bar is where you will find the Undo/Redo functions:
