Creating Templates for G4 PanelBuilder

G4 PanelBuilder

Template Wide Conventions

 

Text Replacement

 - The string "

[text]

" is required on the button wherever text is to be 

replaced in the output file. The string "

[text]

" allows you to prepend/postepend text with 

characters. If the text on a button to be replaced does not contain '

[text]

" then it is 

unchanged.

 

Panel Title*

 - A template can contain as many buttons named "

[panelTitle]

" as 

necessary, they are replaced with the "Job Name" of the panel.

 

Preview Images

 - A template must contain a main preview image and can also contain a 

preview image for each element. The main preview image should be named 

'

[preview].jpg

" (or .png). The element previews should follow the same naming 

conventions as their page prefixes, i.e., "

[device#DVD].jpg

." There can only be one 

preview image per element.

AMX Element Naming Conventions

AMX urges you to use the following naming convention to allow for portability between templates. 

Errors could occur if the elements do not match from template to template.
