Managing Templates

If you take a wide variety of pictures, and tend to take pictures of similar things (pets, kids, etc.), then you may want to start using templates so that you can access custom buttons that you have already used before.  This prevents you from having to re-type the custom words or names into the buttons.

Using templates is easy, but before you can start using templates, you need to create them.  To create a template, follow these simple steps:

  • Edit the Custom Buttons by RIGHT-CLICKING on each one and typing in some text (then click OK).
  • Click on the ‘Templates|Manage Templates’ menu
  • In the ‘Save’ frame, type in a filename (for example, ‘New Template’)
  • Click the ‘Save’ button to save the template

    You’re done!  When you would like to use that template again, simply click on the ‘Tools|Manage Templates’ menu, choose the file from the list of saved files, and click Open.  The Custom Buttons will be restored.  If you would like to replace (or update) a previously saved template, simply choose the file from the list, then click ‘Save’.  You will be prompted to confirm overwriting the previous file.

    If you find that you have a template that you do not use any more, you can delete it by choosing it from the list and clicking the ‘Delete’ button.  This sends the template to the Recycle Bin, so if you delete one by accident, you can restore it from the Recycle Bin.

    Note:  When saving templates, the 9 ‘Custom Buttons’ are saved.  The 3 ‘Temp’ buttons are not saved, as these are used for ‘temporary’ things.
