The complete set of titles for this button and the specific characteristics that determine its title and capabilities are discussed in the dynamic command button section. Name drop-down menu The Name drop-down menu displays the name of the last selected custom paper size, allows you to enter new names for custom paper sizes, and allows you to select from the list of currently defined custom paper sizes. The name displayed in the Name drop-down menu is one of three things, depending upon the following conditions: • If a saved custom paper size has been selected from the drop-down menu and the other controls in the dialog box have not been changed since then, the Name drop-down menu displays the name of the last selected custom paper size. • If the width or height controls have been changed since a custom size was selected or saved, or if a saved paper size has just been deleted, then the Name drop-down menu displays the default name of Untitled. • If a new name has been typed into the Name drop-down menu for the purpose of saving a new size or renaming an existing size, then that new name will remain in the drop-down menu display until a saved custom paper size has been selected from the drop-down menu. If a new name is typed into the Name drop-down menu, but the Save button is not clicked, you should be able to change the width and height values without losing the name. However, if a saved paper size name is selected from the drop-down menu, any unsaved name or size values are lost without warning, and replaced by the values of the selected custom paper size.

Selecting the button causes the name in the Name drop-down menu to be compared against each of the saved names. If a duplicate is found, a dialog box appears asking you if it is okay to replace the existing item. If you click Yes, the old item is updated with the new values. If you click No, the driver returns to the Custom Paper Size dialog box for you to type a different name. Whenever the command button has the Save title, it is the default button. NOTE: In Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me, both the custom paper size entry and storage are case sensitive; "Big" and "BIG" can co-exist. However, in Windows NT 4.0 and 2000, while the custom paper size entry is case sensitive, storage is not. Therefore, "Big" and "BIG" cannot co-exist. The new name is compared only against the list of user-defined custom paper names, and not against the standard paper size names. • Delete is the button title whenever the name of an existing (previously saved) custom paper size appears in the Name drop-down menu, such as immediately after selecting an item from the drop-down menu or clicking the Save button.

The new name is compared only against the list of user-defined custom
paper names, and not against the standard paper size names.
The complete set of titles for this button and the specific characteristics that determine its title and
capabilities are discussed in the dynamic command button section.
Name drop-down menu
The
Name
drop-down menu displays the name of the last selected custom paper size, allows you
to enter new names for custom paper sizes, and allows you to select from the list of currently
defined custom paper sizes.
The name displayed in the
Name
drop-down menu is one of three things, depending upon the
following conditions:
•
If a saved custom paper size has been selected from the drop-down menu and the other
controls in the dialog box have not been changed since then, the
Name
drop-down menu
displays the name of the last selected custom paper size.
•
If the width or height controls have been changed since a custom size was selected or saved,
or if a saved paper size has just been deleted, then the
Name
drop-down menu displays the
default name of
Untitled
.
•
If a new name has been typed into the
Name
drop-down menu for the purpose of saving a
new size or renaming an existing size, then that new name will remain in the drop-down
menu display until a saved custom paper size has been selected from the drop-down menu.
If a new name is typed into the
Name
drop-down menu, but the
Save
button is not clicked, you
should be able to change the width and height values without losing the name. However, if a
saved paper size name is selected from the drop-down menu, any unsaved name or size values
are lost without warning, and replaced by the values of the selected custom paper size.
Dynamic command button
The button located to the right of the
Name
drop-down menu has three possible labels:
Save
,
Delete
, and
Rename
.
•
Save
is the button title whenever the height and width values have been changed since the
last save or the selection of an existing custom paper size. Selecting the button causes the
name in the
Name
drop-down menu to be compared against each of the saved names. If a
duplicate is found, a dialog box appears asking you if it is okay to replace the existing item. If
you click
Yes
, the old item is updated with the new values. If you click
No
, the driver returns
to the
Custom Paper Size
dialog box for you to type a different name. Whenever the
command button has the
Save
title, it is the default button.
NOTE:
In Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me, both the custom paper
size entry and storage are case sensitive; ±Big² and ±BIG² can co-exist.
However, in Windows NT 4.0 and 2000, while the custom paper size
entry is case sensitive, storage is not. Therefore, ±Big² and ±BIG² cannot
co-exist.
The new name is compared only against the list of user-defined custom
paper names, and not against the standard paper size names.
•
Delete
is the button title whenever the name of an existing (previously saved) custom paper
size appears in the
Name
drop-down menu, such as immediately after selecting an item from
the drop-down menu or clicking the
Save
button. Clicking the
Delete
button causes the saved
