System 7.5 Scrapbook: Out of Memory Messages (2/95)


After upgrading to System 7.5, I have noticed that the items I used to paste in the Scrapbook give me errors. I get multiple out of memory messages. Is the Scrapbook different in System 7.5?

The Scrapbook in System 7.5 was re-written to provide greater functionality. Two of the new features are: support for drag and drop clippings, and the ability to resize. It was also rewritten as an application under System 7.5 rather than a desk accessory, which means that a certain amount of memory can be allocated for the Scrapbook application using the Get Info command in the Finder.

If you get multiple out of memory messages when opening the Scrapbook, then increase the preferred memory allocation 100-200K using the Get Info command (use the search string change program memory in Apple Guide for more information).
