Saving a Template


 

First you must create a new Project and select your custom options. A good Template is one where all of the important options have been pre-selected for a specific Application Type. For example, if your Template is part of an internal Project you should select the same skin, Splash Screen and Styles where appropriate.

 

Your Template can also contain sub-Forms as the Zinc™ v2 Template will save the sub-Form options selected also.

 

Once you have selected your Form options, select "FILE > Save as Template..." and the following window will appear:

 

templates_01

 

 

Here, you can specify a Template Name and also enter Author/Ownership details. You can also select certain options to Lock so that other developers/users who access the Template cannot change your options.

 

If you do wish to Lock Form Settings, please remember to lock each sub-Forms option independently by selecting the appropriate Form the drop down list.

 

Once you click on Save, your Template will be saved.

 

Notes

 

If you select "Enable Password for Full Open" please be sure to note the password as the Template will be permanently locked.
