Changing Color Schemes
If the template you are working with has more than one color scheme available the Color Schemes
button is active in the toolbar.
To change the color scheme of your project file:
1. With your project file open go to Project > Color Schemes to open the Color Schemes dialog
window.
2. Select the color scheme in the field and click OK.
While the color change is not reflected in the toolbox, you will see it if you select an element and
go to Diagram > Preview.
Creating A New Project from File
You can change templates attributed to projects and create a new project as a result.
1. Select File > New From File to launch the New From File dialog window.
2. Open your desired project file (*.PB4).
3. The next window to open is the New project dialog. Select the new template to be used with the
project.
4. Click OK.
If a project is already open and you select open a new or existing project, you are
prompted by the Save As dialog window. The previous project will remain on screen
until you are done setting up the new project.
Editing Project Properties
You can edit some of the project's properties as well as add information specific to you, i.e., Dealer
ID and Designer ID.
1. Select File > Project Properties to launch the Project Properties dialog window.
2. Place your cursor within the white fields to add and edit text.
To set a password for the project:
1. Click the drop-down menu for Protection. Select either:
Password protection extends only to TPDesign4. Projects password protected in G4
PanelBuilder can still be opened and used.
2. Type a password in the field provided.
3. Re-type the password within Confirm.
4. Click OK when all changes have been made.
Project properties differ from file properties established in TPDesign4. File properties
entered in TPDesign4 are what is displayed in the Template Manager dialog window.
G4 PanelBuilder
read-only - project can be opened; not changed.
