Template Compatibility dialog

Note: This feature is only available in OL Connect Chromium version.

The Template Compatibility dialog allows review of differences between older Templates and those formatted for the OL Connect Chromium version, when opening in the Chromium Designer.

  • Dialog Interface

    • Issues List: Displays a list of the differences between the older version of the Template and OL Connect Chromium.

      • Issues are grouped by type.

      • You can filter the list by type of issue, (Error, Warning, or Information) by checking or unchecking the corresponding checkbox.

      • The number of resources that are affected by a specific issue is shown next to the issue.

      • You can expand the issue to see details on the resources affected.

    • Issue detail: Displays a detailed description of the specific issue, when an issue is selected in the Issues List.

    • For more information about issue messages, see Template compatibility messages.

  • Export Messages: This button saves a textual copy of all the differences, in CSV file format. The CSV file shows the status, issue (topic), resource (including line numbers), and description, with a line for every resource:

    Copy
    Status, Issue, Resource, Description
    <Information/Warning/Error>, <Topic>, "<Resource + Line Numbers>", "<Description>", 
  • Backup Original: This button saves a copy of the Template itself, which retains the older formatting.

  • Continue: This button opens the template in the Chromium Designer (modifying it in the process).

  • Cancel: This button cancels the current operation, leaving the original Template as is.

Note: If you manually open the Template Compatibility dialog from the File Menu, the options to Backup Original, Continue, and Cancel are not available, as these are not relevant to a currently open template. There is a button to Close the dialog.
