You can access your faceplates via the “Faceplates” entry in the project explorer. ()

Faceplates can be created, deleted, duplicated and imported from other projects here.

Create ()

After creation, the new faceplate is loaded automatically. Adding/deleting/editing controls in a faceplate works in the same way as on “normal” pages.

Delete ()

When deleting, all placed instances of this faceplate are also automatically deleted.

Duplicate ()

When duplicating, the version (Base version) of the original faceplate to be duplicated must be selected. The version under which the duplicated faceplate is created is specified in the input field (Version).

The duplicate is created by clicking on the (Duplicate) button. Changes to the duplicate do not affect the original faceplate.

Import()

After selecting a project, the following dialog appears.

All faceplates that are available in the previously selected project appear in the list. The tick in the first column is used to select which faceplates are to be imported.

Name conflicts with existing faceplates

If a name conflict occurs during import (current project already contains a faceplate with the same name), two options are available to resolve this conflict:

Rename
This option renames the faceplate to be imported.

Merge
With this option, the faceplate to be imported is integrated into the existing faceplate. Only versions from the faceplate to be imported that are not present in the existing faceplate are transferred.
This means that new versions of a faceplate that were created in another project can be transferred to another project.
