Applying Password Protection to Your Project File

TPDesign4 supports two levels of password protection for Project (.TP4) files:
TPDesign4 Touch Panel Design Software (v2.10 or higher)
This editable field displays the current Job Name associated with this project.
This editable field displays the current Designer associated with this project.
This editable field displays the current Dealer ID (identifier) associated with
this project.
This editable field displays the current Sales Order (identifier) associated with
this project.
This editable field displays the current Purchase Order (identifier) associated
with this project.
This read-only field displays the creation date for this project, and the build
number of the TPD4 used to create this project.
This read-only field displays the last date on which this project was saved
(and the build number of the TPD4 used to create this project).
This editable field displays the current Revision (identifier) associated with
this project.
This read-only field displays the date of the current revision of this project.
This read-only field displays the full path and disc filename of the project.
This editable field displays any comments that were added in the New Project
Wizard.
Click the down-arrow to select one of three levels of password protection for
this project file:
• none- this is the default setting (no password protection).
• read-only - the next time this panel file is opened, the Enter Access
Password dialog appears, prompting the user to enter the correct password
in order to gain write access to the file. To simply view the file (as read-
only), click on the Read-Only command button (in the Enter Access
Password dialog). If the file is opened in read-only mode, the word
"[Locked]" appears immediately to the right of the project name in the
Workspace Navigator and no edits on the panel file are allowed. Also, files
opened as read-only cannot be saved to another file name.
• locked - the next time the panel file is selected to open; the Enter Access
Password dialog appears, prompting the user to enter the correct password
to open the file.
Note: These protection options are not Windows file attributes, and are only
relevant within the context of the TPDesign4 application.
Use this text field to enter the password (1 - 259 characters) to use if the file is
set as either read-only or locked. Once the password has been typed, it must
be re-typed in the Confirm text field.
Use this text field to confirm the password by re-typing the password exactly
as it was entered in the Password field. If the passwords don't match, a
"Passwords do not match" message box is displayed.
Click this option to apply system-generated filenames to this project. If the
project was originally set up to use system-generated file names, then select-
ing this option will replace the original information with the updated informa-
tion from this dialog. If system-generated file names were not used for the
project, this information will be added on the next save.
Read-only - the next time this Project file is opened, the Enter Access Password dialog
appears, prompting the user to enter the correct password in order to gain write access to the
file. The password is not required to open and view the file. Note that if a read-only file is
opened without using the password, it cannot be saved under a new file name.
