Apply a Template

Applying a template to a screen will load a previously saved layout.

When you initially navigate to a screen, STA applies the default template for your username. There are several ways that you can apply a template for a screen: the toolbar, quick links, or the template management page.

Templates exhibit sticky behavior, meaning once you apply a template to a screen, STA will continue to display that template whenever you access that screen. The template will remain in effect for the rest of the current login session, until you explicitly apply a different template, or logout.

Use the Toolbar to Apply a Template

  1. Navigate to the screen that you want to apply the template to.

  2. In the upper-right, select a template from the Templates drop-down menu.

Use Quick Links to Apply a Template

Quick Links provide quick access to templates available to your STA username.

  1. In the left navigation, expand Home, and then select Quick Links.

  2. The templates are grouped by screen name. Predefined templates are identified with an asterisk (*). Click a template in the list to load the template.

    Note:

    STA-Default" is not shown in the Quick Links list.

Use Templates Management to Apply a Template

  3. In the table, click the name of the template you want to load.

    Note:

    The "STA-Default" templates are not shown in the list.
