Modifying the Display Name of Groups, an Example

---

You have a customizable product that has three groups: Group A,
Group B, and Collection C. You want to change the name of Collection C to Group C in the selection pages.

Use the Product UI Designer to create the Web pages for configuring the customizable product. Validate the customizable product, and verify that the pages display correctly.

To create a new product theme template and assign it to the customizable product

In the customizable product Work Space record, click the select button in the Product Theme field and open the dialog box.
In the Pick UI Style dialog box and write down the filename of the product theme.
Open the product theme Web template and save it to a new file name: eCfgModifiedTabTheme.swt
Open the new template and locate the swe.control element. Set
CfgFieldName=".NewGroupName". The first character in the variable name must be a period (.). The variable name must be surrounded by quotes. Save the file.
In the customizable product Work Space record, click the select button in the Product Theme field and open the dialog box.
Click Add and add the new template.
Select the template as the product theme template.

To define a UI property for each of the groups

Open the User Interface Property Designer and select Collection C in the Group section.
Define a UI property for it as follows:
Name: NewGroupName. Do not put a period before the name. This is the variable name you inserted in the template file.
Value: Group C.
Select Group A.
Define the UI property for it as follows:
Name: NewGroupName. Do not put a period before the name.
Value: Group A.
Select Group B.
Define the UI property for it as follows:
Name: NewGroupName. Do not put a period before the name.
Value: Group B.
Open the Item Display Properties menu and click Validate.

This starts a configuration session. Verify that the group names display correctly.
