Handling dynamic overlays

Enabling the use of dynamic overlays

1	Select Tools > Options. The Options dialog box opens.

2	Specify the dynamic overlay options. See Options dialog box.

Removing text, image or graphical object from the dynamic overlay

The whole original input layout is used as a dynamic overlay by default. To remove parts of the layout from the dynamic overlay, you must define fields and specify how the content in the fields should be handled. A field can contain text segments, images and graphical objects.

To remove a part of a text segment, you draw a rectangle around the part to remove. Parts of an image or graphical object can not be removed. You must draw a rectangle around the entire object.
