Advanced Operations
Contents
The operations described in this chapter generally involve more computer skill than those covered elsewhere in the User Guide. In some cases you need a basic understanding of how your Windows file system works, file types, and how to handle basic file management tasks. In other cases you need to understand specific internal file structures and simple programming operations. In yet other cases you need to have a basic understanding of modern computer concepts for best results. And for some options you may need to have astrological skills that are more than beginner level.
However these are the areas of Solar Fire to explore if you have become reasonably proficient with the basic operations, and now want to flex your muscles or spread your wings. Here we cover the power features in Solar Fire.
Don't think however, that these features are necessarily difficult to use. In many ways they are no more difficult to use than any other part of Solar Fire, just a bit more understanding is needed. There is certainly nothing here that can't be achieved if you take the time to carefully view the options on the screen, and then refer to the User Guide to learn what's involved, clarify your understanding, and then follow the instructions. With a little bit of experimenting and application, it shouldn't be too long before you're able to tap into the full richness these features provide.
Some of these features are simpler than others and you may want to explore those first before progressing to the others. Therefore the features are listed with the simpler ones first, progressing to the more complex.
