Text Placeholders

Placeholders may be used anywhere in the text where the value of a descriptor should appear, even in other page or image descriptors. Samples of available descriptors include the title of the page, the caption of a picture or the name of the web master. By using placeholders, the text will always reflect the most current descriptor values.

Inserting a Placeholder

Move the text cursor to the location in the text where the placeholder should appear. Click the right mouse button and select Insert Descriptor from the text editor context menu.

For image descriptors, simply bracket the descriptor name with double percent signs, and use it anywhere in a text block:

Descriptor

Placeholder

Event

%%Event%%

If a placeholder is wider than the text column where it is used, it will wrap into a new line. Text attributes (such as color or font settings) can only be applied to the entire placeholder, e.g., it is not possible to underline or boldface only a portion of it.
