Project Properties...

The Properties command lets you define important settings for any of the specific folders in your project.

To define the Project Properties for a folder:
1.Right click on the folder you want to define the properties for, and  
2.Select the Properties... command from the context menu.  

Please note:  
if your project file is under source control, a prompt appears asking if you want to check out the project file (*.spp). Click OK, if you want to edit settings and be able to save them.

File extensions
The File extensions help to determine the automatic file-to-folder distribution that occurs when you add new files to the project (as opposed as to one particular folder).

Validate
Define the DTD or Schema document that should be used to validate all files in the current folder (Main Pages in this example).

XSL transformation of XML files
You can define the XSL Stylesheet to be used for XSL Transformation of all files in the folder.

If you are developing XSL Stylesheets yourself, you can also assign an example XML document to be used to preview the XSL Stylesheet in response to an XSL Transformation command issued from the stylesheet document, instead of the XML instance document.

Destination files of XSL transformation
For batch XSL Transformations, you can define the destination directory the transformed files should be placed in.

If you have added one file or URL to more than one folder in your project, you can use the properties command to set the default folder, whose settings should be used when you choose to validate or transform the file in non-batch mode.

Document Editor
The "Use config." option allows you to select an SPS file when editing XML files using Document Editor, in the current folder. Please see the Document Editor manual for more information.
