Banner Text

Select Setup|Banners|Edit Banner to enter banner text.
Select the number of banner columns by incrementing or decrementing the counter for Number of columns and choose Apply.
Banner columns are displayed with a column number, dashed line (default is 10) and a default significance indicator (i.e. A, B, C, etc.) in a table-like grid with cells.

Enter banner text for each banner column by clicking in the cell below the column number. You can enter multiple lines of text in a cell by selecting the Enter key after entering a line of text or by allowing WinCross to wrap appropriately based on the column width. Banner text is left-justified by default - see Cells Menu (Edit Banner).
It is easiest to work from the bottom up when entering banner text and inserting new rows.
You can use the justify options on the Cells Menu to change how banner text is justified.
You can also right-click in the banner cell and use one of the right-click content menu options (Cut, Copy, Paste and Multi-Paste). The Multi-Paste option will paste text from a list (either one column wide or one row high from Excel) into adjoining cells in the banner.

You can enter new rows in the banner or delete existing rows by selecting the Rows menu.

You can merge cells in the banner to add a heading over a group of banner columns by first adding a row above the cells using the Insert at Current Row option from the Rows menu on the Banner Editor dialog box.

Highlight the cells you want to merge and select the Merge Selected Cells option from the Cells menu on the Banner Editor dialog box.

Enter the appropriate heading text and underlining in the new merged cell. Use the Center Justify option of the Cells menu to center the heading text and underline.

See the following Banner Editor Menu options for help with entering and formatting banner text:

Below is an example of using multiple rows and merging cells to create a multi-layer banner.

You can use the Preview Banner button on the Banner Editor dialog box to preview how your banner will look (see below). You can preview your banner for how it will look if you are using Enhanced text reports or Plain text reports (Run|Tables|Report viewing formats) by selecting the desired tab for Enhanced Text or Plain Text.
