Colors
The basic adaptable attributes for styles are colors. The colors can be specified as hexadecimal values or using the
Color Selection dialog box. This dialog box can be opened by selecting the color preview o a parameter.
Connected colors
The color attributes with a star ( * ) are set and changed automatically, when a higher-ranking color is changed. For
this behavior, do not specify the attribute. The green button is set to inactive.
This practice allows you to create a well-balanced color style and to reduce the effort for adaptations. Therefore it is
recommended that you only change the colors without a star.
This means each color of a default style only needs to be changed once and this change is applied to all other color
instances. Other color instances can also be changed but this makes editing much more complex.
Images
In some cases, images are used (mostly for logos). To change an image, you need to consider the size of the original
image. The new image should have the same size to fit in the layout. The used image size appears after the attribute
name.
The typical file formats for images are GIF, JPG, PNG, BMP. The default images are in PNG format.
Layout types
The settings area has two layout types: Standard Layout and Advanced Layout. You can change the layout by
activating or deactivating the Advanced Layout option.
The standard layout shows the higher-ranking colors of the style. It is sufficient to only change these colors to get a
complete defined style.
In the advanced layout, there are a lot more colors visible that allow you to specify the used colors in greater detail.
Note
After adapting the settings, press the Update Preview button to see the changes.

7 Templates for Content Objects
Templates can be made for objects that are created for workareas in the project explorer. The templates are useful
for saving time as well as for ensuring uniformity for newly created objects when more than one author is working
on a project.
Creating a template
To create a template, proceed as follows:
1. Create a new object by clicking on New Project, New Book Page etc. from the toolbar in the project editor.
2. A dialog box will appear.
Enter a name for the template. Set further required attributes.
Confirm by clicking on Ok.
3. Configure your object as desired.
4. Save the object.
Managing templates
It is recommended to create a group for your templates and to collect all required templates in the group. The
authors can choose a template for the content creation.
Set the group to hidden by using the Hide option in the object editor. Thus the templates are not displayed during
content playback.
Choosing a template
If a template has already been created, you can use it to create a new object or it can be defined as a general
template for creating new objects, which will then serve as the default settings for the new objects.
To use an existing template, proceed as follows:
For an individual object
Create a new object. Select your template from the New Object dialog box under Template about the Change…
button. All the objects will then appear in the opened dialog box. Select your template and click on OK.
As a general template
If you would like to use a template for all the objects, open the central configuration dialog from the menu
Tools -> Settings in the area Application -> Templates. Select the desired template to be used and click on OK.

7.1 Customizing Simulation Pages
You can design the pages in your simulations any way you want. This can be useful if the screenshots of the
recording do not take up the entire screen area or if you are using imported pages. The pages design is based on the
book page design so that you can use the book page styles available in your workarea.
You can find the respective settings under Playback Settings -> General -> Page Style in the Settings dialog box.
You can create the design as the default design for your workarea or for a specific project. A specific project can be
used as template for other projects.

use another template, select the book page from the dropdown box. The property only displays book pages with the
subtype Book Page Template.
7.2.3 Using a Book Page Template
The objects of an active book page template have the following characteristics:
they are inherited from the template
they use the properties as default (green button deactivated)
they are highlighted in blue in the objects list
they are positioned on the layers behind the objects of the created book page
they cannot be deleted - the objects are hidden automatically
SAP Enable Now Customization
Templates for Content Objects
CUSTOMER
58
Changing and resetting objects
The template objects use the defined properties by default, if the template is used for a general book page. You can
change the template objects for your content as required.
To change an object, you have to select the specific property by activating the green control in front of the property
name.
If you have changed objects, you can reset your changes by choosing the Reset Template Objects in the Edit menu.
Once reset, the parameters are unspecified (green control deactivated) and the default template is used.
Note
Changed objects keep their status even when objects are changed in the template. Click on Reset Template
Objects to change the objects in the book page to the current status of the template.
Tips for using templates
If you do not need an object on a book page, hide the object by using the Hide property in the object editor.
We recommend that you keep the template objects when the template is used as a book page because the
objects define a layout.
7.3 Templates for Text Units and Projects
You can insert the content of objects into a book page template, in order to use text units and projects in books.
This supports a separation between content and design. During playback, the properties of the text units or
projects with modes are inserted automatically by the book reader. Each object is displayed as a single book page,
which shows the defined content.
Creating a template
Proceed as follows to insert text units or projects into a book page:
1. Create a book using the New Book toolbar entry.
2. Insert the text units or projects into the book with the required structure. You can also use both types in a
book.
3. Create a book page using the New Book Page toolbar entry. To use it as a template, we recommend that
you save the book page in a separate template group in the workarea structure.
4. Open the book page in the book page editor.
5. Insert empty text boxes as placeholders for the content properties of the objects. The property displayed by
each text box must be defined in the Name parameter of the text box.
6. For projects, you can also insert a Mode Link in the template to use a specific project mode by default.
Insert the Mode Link for the required mode and define the use of the mode in the Name parameter of the
object.
7. Save the book page.
8. Open the Settings dialog box in the section Playback Settings -> book reader. Specify the settings and
confirm with OK.
