MarkMagic Quick Edit Feature Lets You Quickly, Easily Change Field Values

QuickEdit

Did you ever wish you could open a format and change all the text fonts without editing each text field? Or, would you like to modify the length of variable fields, without editing each field one at a time? You can with the MarkMagic Quick Edit interface. One of the four user interfaces included in MarkMagic, Quick Edit allows “heads down” changes, adds, deletes and copies of format fields. In addition, you can rapidly modify field values as easily as changing the values in a PC spreadsheet by selecting “columns” of parameters to edit. Quick Edit also includes a full screen feature for advanced users.
