Using UI Templates
You can maintain a common look and feel across multiple projects by using UI templates. Setting up a UI template requires two steps:
- Setting up the template directory.
- Adding the template to a project.
The following procedures use Windows NT path syntax and assume an English language (enu) installation. The procedure uses ACME_Template_01 as the template name.
To set up the template directory
- In the Siebel application installation, locate the ISSTEMPL\enu\ProjectTemplates directory.
- In this directory create a subdirectory and give it the template name, for example ACME_Template_01. Then create the directory structure beneath it, as shown.
Acme_Template_01
PG
oc_template_i.tpl
oc_template_i.tpl
oc_template_2.tpl
UI
PG and UI are subdirectories; oc_template_i.tpl is the UI registry file; oc_template_i.tpl is the UI input file and oc_template_2.tpl. is the UI output file.
- Place the image and HTML files related to the template in the UI directory.
The last step is to add the template to the project.
To add the template to a project
- Navigate to Interactive Designer and create a project.
You cannot add a template file to an existing project.
- In the project form, enter the name of the UI template in the Template Name field.
