Copying States From A Page; Pasting States From A Page; Deleting Pages From A Project; Exporting Pages As Image Files - AMX TPDESIGN4 V2.5 Instruction Manual

Working With Pages and Popup Pages
Pasting a page onto another page or popup page in the Workspace Navigator (which
is only a paste target for buttons), or onto the Popup Pages folder (which is for popup
pages only) is not allowed.

Copying States From a Page

Copying a state or states from a page, popup page or button is possible by selecting the desired
states in the State Manager then either clicking Edit > Copy from the main menu or clicking on the
Copy button from the main toolbar. You may also right click and select copy from the context
menu.

Pasting States From a Page

You may paste (by either clicking Edit > Paste from the main menu or by clicking the Paste button
from the main toolbar) a previously copied state or states onto any corresponding state or states in
the State Manager, whether it be for a page, a popup page, a different button or the same button.
Pasting a state or states on the panel name in the Panel Navigator (which is for pages or popup
pages only), on the folder named Pages (which is for pages only), on the folder named Popup Pages
(which is for popup pages only) or on a button in the design view is not allowed.

Deleting Pages From a Project

To delete a page from the active project, select the page to delete in the Workspace Navigator
(Pages tab), and select Edit > Delete. The program will prompt you to verify the page deletion first.
All panels must include at least one page, therefore, deleting the last remaining page
is not allowed.

Exporting Pages as Image Files

Use the options in the Export Page Images dialog to export one or Pages in the current Project as
image files:
1. Select Panel > Export Page Images to open the Export Page Images dialog.
2. Use the checkboxes in the Pages & Popups list to select which Pages and Popup Pages to
export.
3. Specify a target directory for the exported image files in the Export Directory field. Use the
browse button (...) to navigate to a target directory via the Browse For Folder dialog.
4. Specify a template for the resulting filenames in the Filename Template field. By default, the
template is set to include the Panel file name and the Page name into the generated image's file
name. As described on the dialog, use $P to insert the Panel name and $p to insert the Page
name into the exported file's name. The file extension is automatically, based on the File
Format selection.
5. Use the Scale% up and down arrows indicate a percentage to down-scale the exported images.
The default setting is 100% (no scaling).
6. Select a image file type (JPG, PNG or BMP) for the resulting image files from the File Format
drop-down. If JPG is selected, you can select the desired level of image compression
