Selecting, editing, or deleting a template

When you click save time with a template in any empty description field to open the template editor, any templates you've already created for that element will appear in a list. (If you haven't created any templates, this window will be blank.)

From here you can:

  • Click on a template to add it into the description field of your selected element. 
  • Hover on a template and click Edit to make changes to that template. 
  • Hover on a template and click Delete to permanently remove that template from the list.
