MULTIVIEW

Format: MULTIVIEW [FILE <filename>] [CLIPBOARD] [CLIPUNIT <clipboard unit>] [SCREEN] [PUBSCREEN <public screen name>] [REQUESTER] [BOOKMARK] [FONTNAME <font name>] [FONTSIZE <font size>] [BACKDROP) [WINDOW] Template: FILE, CLIPBOARD/S, CLIPUNIT/K/N, SCREEN/S, PUBSCREEN/K, REQUESTER/S, BOOKMARK/S, FONTNAME/K, FONTSIZE/K/N, BACKDROP/S, WINDOW/S Purpose: To display picture files, text files, AmigaGuide help files, sound files, and animated graphics files. Path: SYS:Utilities/MultiView Specifications: MULTIVIEW displays the contents of a file. If the file is not in the current directory, you must specify the complete path. If you don't specify a file, MULTIVIEW will display a file requester. If CLIPBOARD is specified, the Clipboard will be viewed instead of the file. CLIPUNIT specifies the Clipboard unit to use when using the CLIPBOARD keyword. SCREEN indicates that you want the object to appear on its own screen, using the display mode specifed by the object. For example, if an ILBM was Low Res, then the screen would match. If REQUESTER is specified, MULTIVIEW will display a file requester. BOOKMARK recalls the object and position when opening a file with a bookmark. FONTNAME specifes which font to use when viewing text objects. FONTSIZE specifies the font size in points to use when viewing text objects. BACKDROP indicates that the window should be a backdrop window. WINDOW will open the MultiView window without an object so that it can be placed in the WBStartup directory. MULTIVIEW is valid on Workbench 3.0 level software.
