You can edit the contents of map, legend, browser, or text frames, but not image frames. When you activate a map frame, you have access to all of the editing commands that are available for the corresponding Map window. When you activate a browser frame, you can sort the contents, resize and reorder columns.
Right-clicking on the layout canvas displays a context menu with the following options that you can use for frames:
- Cut (Ctrl+X) - Removes the current selection and saves it to the clipboard.
- Copy (Ctrl+C) - Creates a duplicate of the current selection and saves it to the clipboard.
- Paste (Ctrl+V) - Inserts the contents of the clipboard at the current location.
To activate a frame, so that you can change its contents:
- Right-click on the frame and click Activate.
- Double-click on the frame, or press the Ctrl key and click on the frame.
The border of an active frame highlights.
Clicking away from the active frame deactivates it, as does pressing the Ctrl key and clicking in the frame. (Use the Ctrl key as a quick way to toggle between making a frame active and inactive.)
