Pasting gstrings (graphics) into a GenText.



Q. Given a GenText object, could I stick a GString into its text somehow?
   Would weird things happen to the line spacing?

A. You can paste a gstring into the GeoWrite text layer. The text
   library takes care of figuring out the line spacing based on the size
   of the graphic. GeoWrite uses a subclass of VisText to do this, but
   help files created in GeoWrite are displayed using a subclass of
   GenText. If you use GeoWrite to insert the graphic into the text,
   then copy the portion of the text which includes the graphic to the
   clipboard, you could paste it into a GenText.

   After 3/1/97 GeoWrite became NewWrite since NewDeal now owns the
   desktop software.
