Tweaking a layout and saving over it.

Ok...I like the layout thing...but I just notice that if you name/save a layout, then you change something in it...it doesn't change the layout and their is no way to save over it...you have to save it as another name..ug...

I have a layout on my toolbar shortcuts area; I realized that the bibles weren't linked; so I linked them but now...have to save this as an alternate layout and delete the shortcut and the original layout and replace it with this one.

Robert,

To save over a layout just rename the "Now" snapshot with the name of the layout you wish to replace. Voila, it's replaced.

Damien,

thanks...that eases the pain somewhat...id rather have a "save layout" button though and not have to type!

You're welcome.

The other option would be to add to the right-click context menu for the saved layouts - "update to current layout" or somesuch.

You may notice that I have a thing for right-click context menus

I can't find a way to rename. How is this done?

Mike,

Go to "layouts" on the tool bar and on the R/H side you'll see the current one; click the little pencil and it will let you rename.

When you are done renaming; just click "off" the box and close the window. that layout will now appear on the L/H side as a "saved layout" like the "workspaces" used to be.

Thanks, I looked and looked, but didn't see the little pencil.

Mike,

You can either click on the little pencil of the Now Snapshot or you can just click on the word "snapshot" and overwrite it.
