Problem

Can I have two symbols e.g. dog, cat, and have one label for them e.g. pets?

Solution

Yes. There are two ways to do this:

If you only want it in one document or if you want this permanently in a wordlist.

1. As a single instance in a document:

Type 'dog cat'. Highlight over both words. Press F11. Type the replacement text. Press the RIGHT arrow.

2. As a permanent entry in a wordlist:

• Open the Resource Manager
• Open your main wordlist that you want to add this to
• Go to the second tab 'Create wordlist'
• Find the first item from the list on the left (dog). This will now show in the center panel
• Click on Qualifiers in the top right box, and then click on the radio button by Qualifiers from graphics folders
• Then from the window below, click on the + sign by Hard Disk resources and then on Widgit Rebus (to the folder where the graphics you want are)
• Find the graphic
• Click on the tall box to the right of the graphic for dog (to put a red highlighter around it) and then on the graphic to put it there (cat)
• Now in the top of the center panel where it says 'word' type the text you want associated with this graphic combination
• Click Add at the bottom of the wordlist
• Then save the wordlist
