## About Frames

### Merits of Frames

The feature lets you place frame parts as the four corners of the frame and elongate them to make the frame.

By letting you make a large frame using just one or several small images, this feature helps reduce the data size of the manual.

The way the frame is laid down depends on the number of images you use to make it.

  Specify 0 Textures: Creates a single-colored rectangle without setting any images as parts of the frame.
  Specify 1 Texture: Sets a single image as the upper-left corner and creates the rest of the frame by automatically copying this image to the other corners.
  Specify 4 Textures: Creates a frame by setting individual images for all four corners.

### Composition of Frames

The New Frame feature allows you to combine textures to create a frame.

Structure these by placing image files in the four corners and then by elongating each side.

The size of the frame can be freely adjusted. This is an effective way to build frames of any size from a tiny image.

## Creating a Frame

### Creating a New Frame

1. Frame creation

   Right-click anywhere on a page and select New Frame from the shortcut menu.

2. Frame placement

   A rectangular object is placed in the layout area.

   In this state, no images have been set yet for the frame.

   To display the frame properly, you must set images for the frame as explained in Setting Images.
