BidMagic 1.5 Navigation Aids

NOTE-- We retired the BidMagic construction estimating software in 2001. It has been replaced by Goldenseal construction estimating software.

We still include this BidMagic estimating software manual as a convenience for users of our older program. Many features are similar, in Goldenseal estimating.

Several navigational aids have been added to The BidMagic construction estimating software .

• To move to the card that you were most recently on, hold down the Option key while clicking on the ‘next arrow’ or ‘prev arrow’ button. This is the same as choosing Recent Card from the Navigate menu, or typing Command-R.
• To move from one Specifications card to another, click on the card name in the upper left corner of the BidMagic window, and keep holding down the mouse button. You will see a popup menu of all Specifications cards.
• To move to any Specifications card from the Bottom Line card, double-click on the name of the category in the category list.
NOTE: When a single category covers several cards, double-clicking on the name will take you to the first card in the series.
• The keyboard shortcut for the Next Window command in the File menu is now Command-I.
• The Unit Price Editor now has two keyboard shortcuts: command-N creates a new unit price item, and the Delete key deletes the selected item in the unit price list.
