Generate Documentation Options - Skip Root Package

[Stephen Kropp]

I am trying to use the Generate Documentation feature efficiently and am finding that I am using the "Skip root package" option for every report that I want to generate. Is there any way to auto-select this option without having to select it each time?

I figured it out! If anyone else is wanting to do this here are the steps:

1) I had to create a new template:

• Right-click on a package, select "Documentation"
• Select "Generate Documentation"
• Select "Templates" (from the left tree of options)
• Select "New"
• Give the template a name
• Select the template you wish to modify from the "Copy Template" drop-down)

2) Modify the newly created custom template

• Right-click anywhere on the template"
• Select "File"
• Select "Document Options..."
• Select the options you want, in my case I selected "Skip root package"

3) Select the custom template for generation

• Right-click on the package you want to document, select "Documentation"
• Select "Generate Documentation"
• Select "Template:" drop-down option and select your new custom template
• Select "Generate"

* One note, I tried doing this same procedure to a style sheet template but the process didn't work, it appears that the Document Options need to be selected at the root template that you are using from the Generate Documentation dialog box.
