This defines the format of the unique ID for each Item created in that particular folder. Specifying the folder type – its intended use – gives a visual indication of the content of that folder when browsing the Workspace.Īnother important aspect of the parent folder is the Item Naming Scheme employed for it. To nominate a folder's use as a container for schematic templates, set its Folder Type as Schematic Templates, when defining the folder properties in the Edit Folder dialog. It simply provides a visual 'clue' as to what is stored in a folder and can be beneficial when browsing a Workspace for particular content. This has no bearing on the content of the folder – saving a schematic template will always result in a corresponding Schematic Template Item. When creating the folder in which to store schematic templates, you can specify the folder's type. For more information, see Environment Configuration Management ( Altium 365 Workspace, Enterprise Server Workspace). Environment configurations are defined and stored within the Team Configuration Center – a service provided through the Workspace, and the facilitator of this concept of Environment Configuration Management. An environment configuration is used to constrain a designer's working environment to only use company-ratified design elements. In addition and available with Altium Designer Enterprise Subscription, a Schematic Template Item can be used as a configuration data item in one or more defined Environment Configurations.
