Template Editor Toolbar

The Template Editor Toolbar includes the following features:

Open Template File: Open an existing (*.fet) template file.
Save Template File: Save your changes to the template file. You can save the changes to the current file, or name a new template file (*.fet).
Print Current Template Source: Print the currently selected template.
New Template: Create a new template. A default new template name is added to the end of the list of templates displayed in the Templates pane that you can accept or modify.
Delete Template: Delete the template currently selected in the Templates pane. The pencil icon changes to a can icon. When you save the template file, the template is deleted.
Find in Template Source: Opens the Find dialog, where you can search for text in the template source and work with search options.
Find Again in Template Source: Repeats the search last entered in the Find dialog. This button allows you to search again without reopening the Find dialog.
Replace in Template Source: Opens the Replace dialog, which you can use to find and replace text in the Template Source pane.
Toggle Auto Indent: Toggles auto-indenting in the template. When auto-indent is on, you can press enter to create a new line that is indented to match the preceding line. You can use auto-indent as needed; the formatting of the source code has no impact upon the formatting of the expanded text.
Toggle Macro Categories: Toggles sorting of the macros by category. You can select to display the macros list in alphabetical order (default) or by category (Attribute, Entity, and so on). Click the Toggle Macro Categories icon to toggle the display. The last display selected is saved as the default for when you next open the Template Editor.
Configure: Opens the Template Editor Preferences dialog, where you can work with color and macro display options.
Edit Macro Categories: Opens the Macro Categories dialog where you can work with options to categorize your macros.
Help: Opens the online help.
