Shortcuts when Loading Objects
Select All/Deselect All
Selecting or deselecting all of the objects at once can be done with the same double-presses as
described for the Þle list dialog, namely:
¥
Left/Righ
t cursor double-press: Select All Objects
¥
Up/Down
cursor double-press: Clear All Selections
If you want to load most but not all of the items from a Þle (for example, if there happens to be a
Master table in the Þle that you donÕt want to load), it may be fastest to Þrst select all objects
using the
Left/Right
double-press, and then manually deselect any unwanted items.
Viewing the Name Table
The name table is an object that appears in Þles that were created using the
Names
button in the
ÒSave dependent objects?Ó dialog (see
The Name Table
on page 13-31). This object contains a list
of dependent objects needed by the other objects in the Þle at the time the Þle was saved. There
is more information about this later on, however it is worth mentioning here that a highlighted
name table objectÕs contents can be viewed by pressing either one of the
Left
or
Right
cursor
buttons.
Loading Dependent Objects
When you press
OK
after selecting one or more objects, the K2600 will ask the following
question:
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Load|dependent|objects?|||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Yes||
|
|No||
This dialog appears because one or more of the selected objects might have dependents
associated with them in the Þle. (Remember, dependents are those objects needed by other
objects; samples are dependents of keymaps, effects and keymaps are dependents of programs,
and so on.) When this dialog appears, it does not necessarily mean that there really are
dependents of the selected objects. The K2600 will not know whether there are dependent
objects in the Þle until it begins to read in the selected objects, and determines what their
dependents are.
Answering
Yes
to the question tells the K2600 to also load the dependents. You may wish to
answer
No
if, for example, you are simply loading a program or a keymap as a template for use
with other objects. You can also manually select only some of an objectÕs dependents, and then
answer
No
to ÒLoad dependent objects?Ó to prevent other unwanted dependents from being
loaded.
To summarize, it is not necessary to select any of the dependents of an object if you plan on
loading all of the dependents. As an example, for a Þle containing dozens of programs,
keymaps, and samples, you may choose to highlight a certain program and press
OK
, and
