Class Objective: This class will briefly show you how to select a Module Set.
Requirements: If you don’t have any module sets made, you will first need to learn how to make them. See the sidebar “Module Sets” or the How to Make Module Sets post.
Once you know how to make module sets, and you make some, you will need to select them to use them. This is very easy.
First of all, module sets only work with the Bookview window, so open a Bookview window (F12). Now look for the Green icon in the upper left hand corner of this window. Click on it.
To select one of your module sets, click on the green books icon.
Here you can see I have several module sets (upper yellow area), with Commentaries All currently selected.
Note that theWord comes with no module sets pre-made. These module sets totally depend upon what modules you have installed so there is no way for the program to come out of the box with these premade.
You need to make your own before any will show up on this pop up menu.
How to uninstall modules
By David Cox
Question: I have many modules installed and they are showing up double, so how do I uninstall extra modules in theWord.
First of all, let’s get some things straight. What theWord presents to you in the book module selector bar is what the module layout set has. There may or may not be multiple copies of the book in your installation. When you setup a Module Layout Set (See How to Make Module Sets), you need to first click “Clear Tree” before you make a new module set, or you risk having some modules show up twice. This needs to be checked first. Continue reading How to uninstall modules
OBJECTIVE: Explain how to compress a theWord module.
theWord module compression. This tutorial page explains about how theWord Bible program compresses its files. This is an automatic thing, and it helps you to not have to do so. Actually, it is transparent if you activate it.
This is where we should start. Actually there good reasons to compress your modules. First of all, if you are uploading them to the Internet, if you are emailing them, if you are using the modules on a USB Flash memory drive and have limited space, all of these are reasons to compress a module.
You can compress any module except for Bible modules which are just plain ASCII text files.
First of all, you need to select the module from the module select bar. Once you have the module in the bookview window, then right click on its title, or if it is in a folder on that bar, select the file and then right click on the folder.
In the popup dialog box that results, click the second tab at the top, and you should see this image (with your module’s information instead of the one I picked).
Once you have checked off the corresponding check boxes (above) you click ok and the dialog box will close. Note that this is the preferred way to compress a module to email it. Doing this, you will get as good file compression as using any compression utility out there, and whomever receives the module and immediately use without uncompressing it.
Eliminating theWord Bible text brackets. Tip: How do you get rid of the square brackets in the Bible texts? (Also when copying and pasting?)
Eph 1:2 Grace [be] to you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.
As you see in this example, these words are added words by the translators. Depending on your view of these things and what version of the Bible you are using, this can be distracting. The more modern version play rough with the original text and they, in general, don’t mind changing the exact words to something similar, so this is not even appearing in those Bible versions. For the Bible versions that try to maintain a one-to-one correspondence, this can appear in these more biblically true texts. Continue reading Eliminating theWord Bible text brackets
