After the Java program loads below, you start with an empty canvas
and a list of Hebrew words on the right.
Add objects by dragging Hebrew words onto the canvas. (Dragging
means clicking and holding the mouse button while moving the mouse.)
As you drag an object, the word for it is highlighted.
Move an object around in the canvas by dragging it. Remove an
object by dragging it off the canvas. When you drag an object,
it moves to the front of the scene.
To clear the canvas and start over, click on the eraser.
Click on the small dressed Torah to see how everything goes together.
NOTE: If the colors appear dull or speckled, try changing the number
of colors on your display. The Java implementation in some browsers
alters colors when the display is set to 256 colors, some alter
the colors when the display is not set to 256 colors, and some work correctly all the time. (See
your computer manual for how to change the number of display colors.)
This is only a demonstration of how The Gates of Torah is interactive.
(Please allow several minutes for Java Applet to load.)
