Title: Best Way to Edit Templates
Post by: Jeff Odell on March 21, 2006, 06:42:35 am

I've spent a frustrating amount of time trying to update the Use Case Scenario template.  The idiosyncrasies of the internal editor drove me to try using Word or WordPad by using the Export/Import function.  I've had limited success.

A couple questions for discussion:

• How do you approach editing the template?  Do you use an external editor or just the internal one?
  
• How do you position fields a a specific place in the document.  I understand moving the fields up and down on the left panel.  But often the markers are placed adjacent to the next set of markers no matter where I put the cursor.
  
• What is the significance of the SSBookmark style?  Can I use some knowledge of this in editing externally?
  

Any other tricks or tips to working with the templates are appreciated.
