OK, I know there has to be a simple answer to this but I just can not figure it out right now, and I do not see any similar questions. I have found .XAML tiles/details that different users have posted and look interesting but I am not certain how to get those files into my HR project so I can play around with them? How do I import those into the templates of HR? Thanks for the help on what I know is a silly question.
This should answer your question=>
John, thank you for the quick response. The xaml files are ones I found on the support forum and I am struggling to get them from the forum to a project. I have copied the files to my desktop but am not certain how to get them back into a project? I don’t see anything in the Designer that allows me to specify the location of the xaml file I want to use? They are either in the list or they are not. I traced the other template xaml files and they are stored in a temporary directory while HR is running and go away, best I can tell, once I close the designer. I even tried copying the new xaml files into that temporary directory with the other files but the Designer would not recognize the new files. With the latest version of Designer, and my newer laptop, I am not seeing the full HR Designer program on my computer. I can find my projects - .hrp files, and different themes/icons on my computer, but that is about it. It appears to be running as an app rather than a full program. Thanks for helping with this.
Did you read that link I shared? It’s really as simple as that.
As always, make sure you are running the latest Designer version. Check the About screen in the app to make sure you are running 4.4.4.0
Bill, (sorry about using ‘John’ in the initial response - trying to multi-task, and failing, while writing a work email to a John!). I did read the response in the link and I am running the latest version of Designer. I have copied the .xaml files to my main drive, my HR directory and the desktop and just can not figure out how to get them into a project? I have tried drag/drop, etc. and it still is not working for me.
Copy & paste the files. A simple CTRL-C CTRL-V combo will do the trick. If your keyboard shortcuts aren’t working then, right-click the XAML file & select copy. Then right-click the Pages folder in the Designer & select Paste.
Ok, I have it now. I had tried every possible combination of cut/paste as the first thing I did and it didn’t work. I now realize my computer had downloaded links rather than the actual files. I had to redownload them as actual files and then I could copy and paste. I knew it was an easy/silly thing I was missing so I appreciate your patience.
