¶ Initial state of panels
You can control the initial state of certain parts of the Designers user-interface that can be opened and closed. At the right side of the user interface are 2 panels:
- Designs panel
- Pages panel
The checkboxes control whether these panels will be open or closed when the Designer is launched.
Designs panel
When you upload a template file to the Designer server, the Designer server automatically creates a thumbnail image of all pages in the template PDF. If you have uploaded multiple template files into a single product, when your customer starts the Designer session for the product, the Designer will display the Designs panel to the customer. This Designs panel displays the various thumbnail images for each product to the customer so that the customer can choose the template he would like to use. The image below displays an example of the Designs panel:
Pages panel
For multipage documents, the Designer can display a panel at right showing the various pages. Your customer can click the images in the Pages panel to navigate between pages. The image below shows a Pages panel for a 2-page document:
