Applying custom extensions to a work area template

Custom user interface extensions can be applied to work area templates. These extensions may act upon custom properties used by the work area template or act upon the documents contained in work areas created from the template. Any property pages included in the extension will appear in Configurator as property pages in the Pages branch of the configuration tree.

Before you begin

The extensions that you want to apply to a work area template must already be registered in the vault configuration. For more information on registering extensions, see Registering custom interface extensions.

To apply custom extensions to a work area template:

In Configurator, expand Work Area Templates in the configuration tree to display the existing work area templates.
Select the work area template that you want to configure. The work area template’s property pages appear in the right pane.
Click the Edit button to modify the options.
On the Extensions page, Click options or type values using the descriptions in the following table.

Work area template custom extension options
