If a new name is typed into the combo box but the Save button is not selected, then you
should be able to change the Width and Height values without losing the name. However,
if a saved paper size name is selected from the drop-down list, any unsaved name or
size values is lost without warning, and replaced by the values of the selected custom
paper size.
Dynamic command button
The command button located to the right of the combo box has three possible labels:
Save, Delete, and Rename.
• Save is the button title whenever the Height and Width values have been changed
since the last save or the selection of an existing custom paper size. Selecting the
button causes the name in the combo box to be compared against each of the saved
names. If a duplicate is found, a dialog appears asking you if it is okay to replace the
existing item. If you select yes, the old item is updated with the new values. If you
select no, the driver returns to the Custom Paper Size dialog box for you to type a
different name. Whenever the command button has the Save title, it is the default
button.
NOTE: In Windows 9x, the custom paper size entry and storage are
case sensitive; Big and BIG can co-exist. However, in Windows
NT 4.0 and 2000, the custom paper size entry is case sensitive
but storage is not; so Big and BIG cannot co-exist.
The new name is compared only against the list of user-defined
custom paper names, and not against the standard paper size
names.
• Delete is the button title whenever the name of an existing (previously saved) custom
paper size appears in the combo box, such as immediately after selecting an item
from the drop-down list or selecting the Save button. Selecting the Delete button
causes the saved custom paper size to be deleted, after which the combo box
changes to Untitled, the Height and Width controls are unchanged, and the button
title changes to Save.
• Rename is the button title when the you type something into the combo box after
selecting an existing custom paper size from the drop-down list. If no duplicate is
found, the name of the stored custom paper size changes to match the contents of
the combo box. Whenever the command button has the Rename title, it is also the
default button.
The following state table illustrates the relationships between the combo box, the
command button, and the actions that take users from one state to another.
