Applying Password Protection to Your Project File

TPDesign4 supports two levels of password protection for Project (.TP4) files:
These protection options are not Windows file attributes, and are only relevant within
the context of the TPDesign4 application.
To apply password protection to the open Project file:
1. Select File > Project Properties to open the Project Properties dialog - Project Information
tab.
2. Click the down-arrow next to Protection to select a level of password protection from the
drop-down list (either read-only, locked or none).
3. Enter the password in the Password text field. Passwords can be from 1 to 259 characters in
length.
4. Re-type the password in the Confirm field. If the passwords don't match, a "Passwords do not
match" message box is displayed, in which case you'll need to re-enter the password, or re-
confirm the password, or both.
5. Click Apply to save the changes and apply the specified password to the Project file.

Setting a Power Up Page

Use the Power-up page option in the Panel Setup Information tab of the Project Properties dialog to
specify a particular page in your project to be displayed when the panel is turned on:
1. Select File > Project Properties to open the Project Properties dialog.
2. In the Panel Setup Information tab, click the down arrow next to the Power up page field to
display a list of all of the pages in this project.
3. Select the page that you want to be used as the Power-up page from this list.

Setting an Inactive Page Flip

Use the Inactive Page Flip option in the Panel Setup Information tab of the Project Properties
dialog to specify a particular page in your project to be displayed when the panel is inactive for a
specified period of time:
1. Select File > Project Properties to open the Project Properties dialog.
2. In the Panel Setup Information tab, click the down arrow next to the Inactive page flip field to
display a list of all of the pages in this project.

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.
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. If the
password is not entered correctly, the file will not be opened at all.
