This important window is used to create and update entries.
From the Main window menu [Insert] is used to add entries. It is also possible to add new entries from within the Entry details window.
From the Main window menu [Edit] [Update] is used to alter selected entries. The Main window toolbar, context menu, and double clicking can also be used.
Both new and updated entries are shown using the same Entry details window.
It has a menu, toolbar and a status bar that are always present.
The body of the window changes depending on the type of entry, see these sections:
From the Main window, new questions are placed after (or before, if requested) the highlighted focus entry.
From within the Entry details window, new questions are placed after the entry being displayed.
New filter entries are always first placed at the end of the entry list. When you stop viewing a filter entry it will be moved to the appropriate place.
The Entry details window keeps a list of the entries that were selected when [Edit] [Update] was used. If new entries are added, they are added to this list.
You can move backwards and forwards between the entries on this list, using toolbar buttons.
You can also move away from the list to the entry before or after the current entry in the full entry list, using other toolbar buttons.
All changes made with the Entry details window take immediate effect. There are toolbar buttons to undo and redo changes to the current entry.
The changes list is preserved until the whole file is saved. This means that you can return to an entry and still be able to undo any changes made earlier.
