7 Stories - Creation and Modification
You can create and edit stories from within a queue. When you create new stories, you can save
them to the iNEWS Server for future review by you or others. The basics of editing stories
includes: creating a story, opening existing stories, navigating through stories, and editing text in
stories. In iNEWS, stories are created and edited in the Story panel and its three sub-panels.
