Writer instructions | ||
Purpose | Use this page to display a banner announcement on each page of the space. Create the Space announcements page in the master space, outside of the Home branch. You can version the Space announcements page to enable different banners to be published into different target spaces, however, the banner that is displayed in the versioned (master) space itself only displays the most recently-published banner. If you find errors in the banner area of your versioned space and you are sure the Space announcements page is set up correctly, try publishing the page to the same space. For more information, see Space-announcements-banners. | |
Removing | When an announcement is no longer needed, remove the BMC Space Banner macro. | |
Translation | Localized spaces using the L10n Viewport theme must change the name of this page to Space announcements l10n. See Configuring-the-Scroll-ViewPort-theme-for-translated-spaces. | |
Usage | Choose one or none of the following BMC Space Banner macros. If your space requires another kind of announcement, you can use this page in coordination with your team lead and editors. | |
Tutorial and online help
The tutorial (Option T) provides online documentation that describes how to use File-AID/RDX. You can invoke the tutorial in one of the following ways:
- Enter Option T on the File-AID/RDX Primary Option Menu or enter the "=T" ISPF/PDF JUMP function from most screens.
- Enter the HELP command on any screen when a message is not displayed.
- Enter the HELP command twice after a message is displayed (the first HELP command displays the extended message and the second invokes the tutorial).
The File-AID/RDX tutorial operates similarly to the ISPF/PDF tutorial. That is, to move about in the File-AID/RDX tutorial, you use the same commands that you use in the ISPF/PDF tutorial.
