TheSureThingEnvironment

The SureThing environment is not

too different from what you’re

alreadyfamiliar with in other

Windows applications.It includes a menu

bar at the top of the screen, the tabbed

label window (the number of tabs depends

on the brand of label you are using), and

a collection of tools for creating and

editing elements such as label text, text

effects,backgrounds, images, borders,etc.

At the bottom of the screen are buttons

you click to cycle through the various

SmartDesigns.
