Creating an Image Project

You can create an image in any portfolio for which you have write permission. When you create an image project, you must provide a name and URL for the project. The Java WorkShop supplies default values for all other attributes.

To create an image project:

  1. Check the WorkShop tool bar for the name of the current portfolio.

    If it is not the portfolio in which you want to create the project, choose Portfolio => Choose and select another portfolio name.

  2. Choose Project => Create => Image.

  3. Type the name of the project in the Project Name field.

  4. Type the URL of the image file in the Image URL field.

  5. From the Alignment list box, choose how to align the image with the surrounding text.

    For example, selecting Bottom aligns the bottom of the image with the bottom of the text.

  6. Click the Yes radio button in the Image Map field to mark the image as an active image.

    Different areas of the image will cause different actions when you click on them. The WorkShop browser ignores this attribute when displaying the Web page. However, the WorkShop inserts the attribute into the HTML source when you paste it into the Source Editor.

  7. In the Alternate Text field, type an alternative text string for browsers that cannot display images. This field is optional.

  8. Click Apply.

The Java WorkShop creates the project .prj file using the name and other information you supplied. The project name is added to the Project => Choose, Edit, Remove, Run, and Copy submenus. The Portfolio Manager opens with the new project selected.

You can change the default attribute values for the project using the Project Manager. See Editing Project Attributes for information.
