3. To define a value for a default variable, for example copyright or personal
information, double-click in the Current Value column for the relevant de-
scription.
A text box opens where you can type in the relevant information.
4. Click OK when done.
Creating new variables
You can create new variables and define values for them. The new vari-
able will automatically be put in the currently selected folder (or in the
folder with a currently selected variable). Proceed as follows:
1. Either create a new folder by clicking the “New Folder” button, or select a
folder that you want to add a new variable to.
If you chose the former option, select the new folder.
2. Click the “New Variable” button.
A new editable variable appears in the selected folder.
3. Double-click in the Description column beside the new variable to open a
text box where an appropriate description can be typed in.
For example “Producer”.
4. Double-click in the Current Value column to enter the relevant information
for the new variable, i.e. the name of the producer.
5. To create a code that can be used to refer to the variable in the Label Ed-
itor, type in an appropriate name beginning and ending with “%” in the
Code column.
To use the earlier example, this would be written “%Producer%”.
6. Click OK when done.
Once you have entered your personal data you can save the text variables
file as a preset, see below.
On the Options menu there is a default set of text variables that is al-
ways available. Use this as a clean slate for creating new variables.
Saving variable sets as presets
Clicking the name field pop-up at the bottom of the window opens a
menu which allows you to save sets of variables as presets. After having
saved one or more variable sets as presets, you can switch between dif-
ferent presets of already “filled in” variables by selecting one from the
name field pop-up. A preset could typically represent the information be-
longing to a client you work with regularly, for example. Naturally, the auto-
generated variables will still adapt to the current project as usual.
