You can quickly add multiple words or folders at one go in Avaz. This is a huge time-saver, as it not only adds the words but also adds the images and color codes (background colors) automatically for all the words at one go.
How to add many words?
For Avaz version 8.0 and above:
- Tap Menu > Edit words to get into Edit mode.
- Tap 'Add New' icon on the top.
- Tap the Many words at once option.
- Add several words separated by commas, and if you want to add folders, precede it by a '-'.
- e.g. coffee, oatmeal, fruit and tap Save to add the words.
- All these words are added to the current page. The images of the words are automatically added (as found from the Symbols library in Symbolstix). The icons are also assigned the default color code automatically, based on their part-of-speech.
- The new icons are added to the end of the page. You can rearrange the icons within the page by dragging them to any location. You may choose to change the images if you wish to.
- You are free to change any of the items' properties by using the Change icon.
