Copying pictures and presentation templates
Build does not use the library for storing shared pictures and presentation templates, although it uses a similar structure of folders and subfolders for templates.
Build stores templates that are available to all users in a Shared Presentation Styles folder, and templates that are available to all members of a particular role in a role-specific Presentation Styles folder (Roles\RoleA\Presentation Styles, for instance).
The Presentation Styles folder represents the project’s folder in your user folder, so it points to a different location depending on the project you are working on. If you have templates that are specific to the current project this is where to store them so that the Launch activity can find them.
Build does not have a central repository for picture files. Instead, it looks for them in a folder that it refers to as My Images. This corresponds to the project’s folder within your user folder, so My Images for project 1 is not the same as My Images for project 2.
When you click the button for associating a picture with a response, or a presentation template with a question, the dialog box that you see displays all the files that are available for this project. Some will be shared and others will be specific to the current project. If the file you want is not listed, you will need to upload it before you can use it.
You can also download files onto your computer if you need to edit them, for example, if you want to change a template’s page layout or color scheme. Once you have made your changes, you can upload the file to replace the original, or rename it and then upload it.
To upload a file into the project’s folder
1 On the Select dialog box, click Upload.
This opens a standard Windows Choose file dialog box.
2 Locate the file you want to upload and click Open.
The file’s name is added to the list of filenames on the right of the Select dialog box and can now be selected for use in Build.
To download a file from the project’s folder
1 On the Select dialog box, choose the file you want to download from the list of filenames on the right of the dialog box.
2 Click Download.
This opens a standard Windows File Download dialog box.
3 Either click Open to open the file from its current location or click Save to save the file in a location of your choice.
