Snippets are templates that contain commonly used template
elements. You can add snippets to an open template to avoid creating
the same types of content from scratch each time you want to use it.
Before you begin
Create a snippet and save it in the Central Management
component.
About this task
There are snippets provided for
you with the Rational® Publishing Engine installation
in the Central Management component and in the %RPE_HOME%\utils\snippets directory.
Procedure
- From the Palette view, select and drag a snippet into the
template content editor.
- If there is conflicting information between the snippet
and the template, the Insert Snippet wizard opens.
- Edit the conflicting information:
- To use the information from the template, click Use
Existing Item For Conflicts As Allowed.
- To edit the conflicting information, click Edit,
modify the value, and then click OK.
- After you resolve the conflicts, click Finish.
