To edit replaceable fields in a graphic in an ENPS story:
1. Double-click the DekoMOS object production cue in the story.
2. The DekoMOS Editor appears. An image of the template with the current information
displays in the Mini-Preview. Current contents of replaceable fields appear in the Replaceable
Fields Editor.
3. Edit any of the replaceable text fields in the table.
4. Click Save, then click Exit, or click Save and Exit. The edited graphic is now in the story,
replacing its previous version.
Note: Exiting the program does not automatically save your work.
To change DekoMOS graphic templates but preserve contents of the replaceable fields:
1. Do one of these:
• If the template you want to change is already open in the Editor but not yet inserted into the story,
proceed to the next step.
• If the graphic has already been dropped into the story, double-click the DekoMOS object
production cue into the story (ENPS) or in the list of production cues (iNEWS). The graphic
appears in the Editor.
2. Drag and drop a different template into the Mini-preview area of the Editor. The replaceable
fields in this template are filled in with the text or files already entered into the editor to the
extent that the fields correspond with those in the original template. Text from the first
available text field of the original graphic template is entered into the first available text field
of the new graphic template. A clip from the first available clip field in the original graphic
template is entered into the first available clip field of the new graphic template, and so on.
3. Do one of these:
• If the original graphic was already in the story, click Save>Exit, or click Save and Exit. The new
graphic is now in the story, replacing the previous version.
• If the original graphic was not yet placed in the story, drag and drop the mini-preview into the
story.
