Worksheet Crafter User Manual
Most of the language related exercises get directly applied to text. Due to this these exercises are not listed in the left item bar. Instead they are shown in the right sidebar whenever you are editing text.
Applying an Exercise
Both the text item, the handwriting line and tables provide the possibility to apply language exercises to the text. To do so, enter the item with a double click. You will then see a list of language exercises in the right sidebar, underneath the item properties. Simply click on the
desired exercise to apply it.
By default the exercise is applied to the complete exercise. If you want to limit the exercise to a specific part of the text then select the relevant text before you apply the exercise.
Adjusting the Active Exercise
Once you have applied an exercise Worksheet Crafter will show the exercise properties in the right sidebar, directly underneath the list of exercises. Use these properties to adjust the exercise to your specific requirements. You will also find there a button called "Undo this modification", which you can use to revert your changes.
