•
To keep modifications, press
OK;
a new name shows on the node.
•
Press
Cancel
to close the dialog without keeping your modifications.
CAUTION
PPG has no
Undo
command to reverse actions you make accidentally.
For that reason, it's a good idea to use the
Cut
command instead of the
Delete
command to remove nodes and frames. That way, if you delete something by mistake,
you can use the
Paste
command to retain the information.
Name
PPG automatically names the item with its type. You can rename or
change the name of the item.
Description
This field is optional, but you may wish to complete it to provide yourself
additional information when using similarly named items.
