Components

[slinesync]

Hello,

I was wondering about the capabilities of making components in layout, so that when I use a special grid or module format I can make changes on one page and all the other pages will change.

Thanks

Hi Sybil and welcome to GSCF!

It is not really like using components in SU but there is an easy way to accomplish what you want; on the Tray, select the Layers dialog and notice that there are two default layers there one called "On every page".

Now whatever you draw on this layer, will appear on every page in your document and whatever changes you make in this content, will also be reflected on every page.

To make sure you do not scew something accidentally, you can even lock this layer (click on the small - by default "open" - lock next to it).

Gai has the best response for now. We've heard from folks that they'd like this as a feature request as well, and we've filed that. The question is: would this be OK, cool, or REALLY cool?

I vote for cool.
