!DOOK/!Help

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

In the following discussion, the term 'Draw3' refers to the version of Draw
built into RISC OS 3.



The RISC OS 3 version of Draw (Draw3) saves an additional object (type 11)
with every file.  This object (called an 'Options object') contains
information about the current settings so that, when it is loaded back into
Draw3, the settings are restored.  This is of value only when files created
or changed with Draw3 are to be edited in Draw3.  If files (or selections)
are to be used in other applications (including the RISC OS 2 version of
Draw) the inclusion of the Options object in the file has no benefit. 
Indeed, it can cause problems. Unfortunately, Draw3 has no option to save a
file without settings.


Problems:

Every RISC OS 3 Draw file contains an additional object.  When files are
merged the number of additional objects is increased. If. for example, you
created a picture by dragging 12 Draw3 files into any version of Draw, the
resulting file would contain 12 settings objects occupying 12x88 bytes of
memory.  If the resulting file is then merged with another file the extra 1K
of Options objects is included.  The accompanying file, 'Rubbish', is a 44K
file containing a single rectangle.  The rest of the file consists of
Options objects.  It was created by repeatedly dragging a file into itself,
removing the excess rectangles, and saving it.

Acorn's DTP will not allow files created in Draw3 to be loaded.

In some applications, such as 4Mation�s Poster, the Options object, although
invisible and having no 'official' bounding box, is positioned in the bottom
lefthand corner of the document and can be selected.  If it is grouped with
other objects the result can be mystifying as there is no apparent reason
why the group object extends to the bottom lefthand corner of the document.

Poster allows you to create your own borders by designing 9 components.  If
these components are created in Draw3, the resulting file contains 10
components (the 9 objects plus the Options object).  Poster, quite rightly,
complains that the border is incorrect.


DOOK, The Solution

DOOK has been placed in the public domain by Paul LeBeau and 4Mation) to
allow users to remove the unwanted Options objects from RISC OS 3 Draw
files. 

Having installed DOOK on the icon bar you can drag Draw files onto the icon
either from directory viewers or directly from an application.

You can use DOOK in conjunction with Draw3.  When saving from Draw3, drag
the file onto the DOOK icon.  You can then drag from DOOK into the directory
you want the file to go.

DOOK will work with any Drawfile-compatible files, not just files saved from
Draw3.  For example current Poster files are completely compatible with
normal Drawfiles and can be processed using DOOK.

 

The DOOK 'Choices' box

� 'Full verification' : When this option is on, then any file dragged onto the
                        DOOK icon will have a fairly thorough check done on it
                        to check that it follows the Drawfile standard.

                        When this option is off, only rudimentary checks are
                        made on the file.

                        This option is ON by default.

� 'Remove tags'       : If this option is on then any 'tagged' objects found in
                        the file will be converted into normal objects.
                        Tagged objects are special draw objects used by some
                        packages to allow the retention of extra data needed
                        for re-editing the objects later.
                        For instance, Poster uses tagged objects for things
                        such as moulds and borders.  If you use this option
                        then be aware that you may lose the ability to re-edit
                        some of the objects in your file.

                        This option is OFF by default.

� 'Auto save'         : If this option is on then any file dragged in from
                        a directory viewer will be automatically saved again
                        after being processed.

                        This option is OFF by default.

� 'Auto save'         : If this option is on then after being processed, DOOK
                        will attempt to send the file to an editor.
                        How this works is exactly the same as if you
                        double-clicked on the file - ie. if there is an editor
                        on the iconbar which accepts files of that type then
                        the file will be sent to it, otherwise DOOK will attempt
                        to load an editor for it.

                        This option is OFF by default.

� 'Save choices'       : If you click on this button, then the current settings
                         of the above buttons will be saved and will be used as
                         the default state when DOOK is reloaded.
