Some of the things include: @begin(1) You can change the label of any button by changing the appropriate line in the app-defaults file. @end(1) @begin(2) You can change what the beginning (root) nodes are by changing the "root" and "rootGrapher" resources in the app-defaults file. For example, the resources AnswerGarden*root: pa AnswerGarden*rootGrapher: sis AnswerGarden*Control*button4: view pa AnswerGarden*Control*button3: view sis will change the Control node (the first node that comes up). The "By Tree" button will come up saying "view pa". The "Ask Questions" button will come up saying "view sis". The "view pa" button will bring up the node named "pa", and the "view sis" button will bring up the node named "sis". Note that the name "rootGrapher" is an artifact. The node need not be a Grapher. In fact, either "root" or "rootGrapher" can be any arbitrary node. @end(2)
