I use this arrow in any index to show which page a user is reading. I also changed the font size of the link and removed the link. For example, on the home page of this site the index looks like this:See the "How to Make an Index Table" page for an explanation on how to make this index.
Home About Projects Calendar Sponsors Links Site Index Contact Below are instructions on how to add an image to your page, specifically the arrow above. I also mentioned removing the link from the the word "Home" above and changing its font. Change the font size by clicking the little arrow on the formatting tool bar and selecting the size you want. You can tell Composer what style of font you want too.
Tip: One word of caution regarding fonts, don't choose exotic fonts. Stick with simple, common fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, and Courier. This is because someone reading your page may not have the same fonts you choose to use. When this happens, your page will show up as gibberish to them.The other little buttons on the tool bar let you choose Bold, Italic, and Underlined text.
Putting an Image on Your Page
You can put the arrow anywhere you need it. The process for placing an arrow is the same for any image that you want to use on your page. This is how to put in an arrow. To start, put the cursor wherever you want your image to be. Then click the Image
icon on the tool bar.
This Image Properties window should pop up.
Click the Choose File button to select the arrow image. Another window will open, like this:Click the file you want to insert (I clicked "tinyRR.gif" for the arrow image) and then click Open.The Image Properties window will return. I usually click the Alt. Text / Low Res... button before I click OK. This will let you type in text that explains the image. Place your mouse on the image above. The words "Choosing an Image File" should appear in a small box below the cursor. This can be helpful, especially to users who do not use a web browser that displays images. Anyway, when you click the Alt. Text / Low Res... button, this window will pop up:
Type in a description of your image in the top window. For something simple, like an arrow, I usually don't bother . . . now that I think of it though, I'm going to start!Please go on to the next topic
