To change which data mapping configuration is linked to the template, open both the template
and the data mapping configuration that should be linked to it; then save the template.
Auto Save
After a template has been saved for the first time, Connect Designer can auto save the
template with a regular interval. To configure Auto Save:
1.
Select the menu option Window > Preferences > Save.
2.
Under Auto save, check the option Enable to activate the Auto Save function.
3. Change how often it saves the template by typing a number of minutes.
Auto Backup
Connect Designer can automatically create a backup file when you manually save a template.
To configure Auto Backup:
1.
Select the menu option Window > Preferences > Save.
2.
Under Auto backup, check the option Enable to activate the Auto Backup function.
3. Type the number of revisions to keep.
4. Select the directory in which the backups should be stored.
Backup files have the same name as the original template with two underscores and a
progressive number (without leading zeros) at the end: originalname__1.OL-template,
originalname__2.OL-template, etc.
Note
The Auto Save function does not cause backup files to be created.
File properties
On the menu, select File > Properties to view and complement the file properties. See File
Properties.
The file properties can also be used in scripts; see "template" on page946. If you are not
familiar with writing scripts, refer to "Writing your own scripts" on page624.
