Context Menus

About Context Menus

You can access many features and properties of the VBVoice design environment through right-click context menus. A different menu is presented depending on the location of the mouse pointer and whether you are in Visual Basic design mode or run mode.

VBVFrame Context Menu

In Visual Basic design mode, you can access this context menu whenever the mouse pointer is over a blank portion of a VBVFrame page.

Simply right-click over the desired control.

Insert Page	Adds a new page to a frame.
Rename Page	Renames a page in a frame.
Delete Page	Deletes the current page from the frame.
Resize Page	Resizes VBVoice Frames and pages to fit the form.
Check Page	Performs a Check Control command on all the controls on the current page. If an error is found, double-click the error message to jump to the control in error.
Check Frame	Performs a Check Control command on all the controls on the current frame. If an error is found, double-click the error message to jump to the control in error.
Check System	Performs a Check Control on all forms currently loaded. Note that forms in the project that are not displayed (as either normal size or minimized) are not included in the check. If an error is found, double-click the error message to jump to the control in error.
Print	Shows a custom print dialog where you can print details of the design. The VBVoice print option allows you to print individual pages, all pages on a frame, or all frames. Each page is printed together with details about each control, including connections and greetings. It also prints the comments page of each control. This print option provides much more information than simply the layout of the controls, which is all that the normal Visual Basic print command offers.
Start Test	Shows the VBVoice Test dialog. The test is not started until you click Start. See About Testing.
Properties	Accesses the frame and system configuration properties setup dialogs.

Control Context Menus

In Visual Basic design mode, you can access this context menu whenever the mouse pointer is over a VBVoice control on a VBVFrame page.

Simply right-click over the desired control.

View Code	Accesses the code window for the current control.
Properties	Accesses the properties and greeting dialog for the current control.
Start Test	Shows the VBVoice Test dialog. The test does not start until you click Start. See About Testing.
Rename Control	Allows you to rename the control.
Check Control	Performs an error check on the currently selected control. If a log window is not visible, one is created to display the results of the check. To get more information on the error, select the error line and press F1 in the log window or select Help from the context menu.

Run Mode Context Menu

In Visual Basic run mode, you can access this context menu whenever the mouse pointer is over a VBVoice control or blank portion of a VBVFrame page.

Simply right-click over the desired control.

Start Test	Shows the VBVoice Test dialog. The test does not start until you click Start. See About Testing.
Start System	Checks all the controls and then starts voice operations. Performs the same function as the VBVFrame StartSystem() method. It also displays the Line Status window and the log window for channel 1, unlike the StartSystem method.
Stop System	Stops voice operations once the system is started. This command is equivalent to the VBVFrame method StopSystem(False). VBVoice normally waits for all lines to clear before terminating. The Line Status window will appear and mark all idle lines as Waiting for Shutdown. The Wait for Shutdown dialog will appear while lines clear.
Line Status	Displays the Line Status window when the system is started. The Line Status window can be used to display the log windows and to show the current status of each channel.
