Save template and save project

[Kalain]

Hi,

This is quite a long message divided in 3 similar problems.

1/ Try this :

- Open PTE.

- Create a new project and name it : Project 2 slides (for example)

- Add 2 slides. (just to fill project)

- Use CTRL+T : create a template from this project.

(In this window you should be able to check and change path creation template.

By now, if you want to check or change path you have to :

- cancel and close this Ctrl + T window

- use Ctrl+E to check and change path template in this new window,

- close this Crtl + E window

- use again Ctrl+T to create a template from this project. )

Now, in template folder (Project 2 slides.pt), there is :

- 2 slides

- pte project. (Project 2 slides.pte)

But when you close PTE software, it ask you to save the project. (which has been already saved in template folder)

It woud be better and more logical to save project where and while template is created ?

2/ Now, when you close PTE, do not save project.

Open again PTE and open a template :File/Template/ and select "Project 2 slides"

Just change transisiton between 2 slides (or what ever )

Now, If you close PTE or save project (CTRL+S), PTE asks you to save a new project in a different name in a new folder ! !

Why not to save and update .pte project from template folder ?

so, close PTE without saving. (Cancel button)

3/Open again PTE and open a template :File/Template/ and select "Project 2 slides"

Select and add a third slide.

How to update this template whithout to create a new one ?

Is it possible to add function like : Update this template. ?

Dear Alain,

I very appreciate your help and work to make PicturesToExe better!

I'll try to reproduce these problems after 3 day's holidays (in my country).

Alain,

1)

- Template is not an usual project. So if you want you can adjust global folder where all templates will be stored.

- Also of course PTE asks you save the project, because you save template, but didn't saved project - it's different projects now.

2 and 3) It's necessary to update modified template via Ctrl+T. It will suggest existing name of this template and ask to replace old template. Click Yes, and template will be updated.
