You may want to copy a template favorite and make minor modifications instead of creating an entirely new template favorite. The Copy button allows you to do this easily.
- Right-click the template favorite in the Features list or the CUs list (Designer only) to display the context menu.
- Select Edit Template Favorite to display the Edit Template Favorite dialog.
- Before creating a copy, modify the attributes for the features in the template favorite, if necessary. When you edit attribute fields, field names are displayed in blue text. If a field does not accept a null value and no value is assigned, it is highlighted in yellow.
- Enter a new description for the template favorite in the Description field. If you don't rename the template favorite before creating the copy, an additional template favorite will be created with a duplicate name.
- Click Create Copy. The renamed template favorite is saved to your User Favorites folder with your modifications. In the example below, the template favorite Gas Station was created from Fast Food Restaurant using the Create Copy button.
After clicking the Create Copy button, the open template favorite is still the template favorite originally opened. Any edits will be made to this template favorite and NOT the copy. If you want to edit the copy, you will have to close the open template favorite and open the copy for edits.
- If you wish to save all changes to the original template favorite, click Apply or OK.
- If you wish to keep the original template favorite as it was before creating the copy (no changes saved), click Cancel.
