Character Pickers

Character pickers are editing helpers that display sets of characters which may not be easily available from the user's keyboard.

Each character picker set is stored as an html table, which can be created and edited using an html editor, or any other text editor if the user is comfortable with html entity codes. The site software can monitor the user's interaction with the character picker. When the user clicks on a cell in the table, the html entity in that cell is added to a textbox entry which can be cut-and-pasted into the project text editor.

Character pickers can be created per project, and stored with other project files. A character picker is identified by filename suffix of "picker".

This is an example of a picker table:
