About Exporting Styles
To run this command open the Style you want to export and select File -> Export Style.
A file dialog will appear, set the location and file name and click Save.
When a style is exported, Invoice2go takes the style and everything it uses and wraps
it up into the file you specified. The export file can then be sent to others who
can Import the style and start using it immediatly.
What is Included in the Export File
Invoice2go includes everything the style is going to need to run. Besides
exporting the style itself this also includes Lists and the Current View. See below for
more details;
Lists
Any lists that the styles uses will also be included in the export.
However only data items which are marked as base data are included in the Lists.
By default, data items that you create are not listed as base data. This is to prevent valuable
information from getting into the wrong hands.
To mark a list item as base data do the following.
Step 1: Open the list which will be exported.
Step 2: If a base data field does not exist then create one. The Field must be named "Base Data".
Step 3: For each Item in the list put a "Y" value in the Base Data field, if you want it included in the export.
Step 4: Save and Close the list.
Also Note: During the Import process if a List of the same name already exists in the destination
working folder then it will not be imported.
However this will not stop the Style and other lists from being imported.
Current View
The view that you are in when you export the Style is also included in the export file.
You can double check what view you are in by looking at the 3rd cell at the bottom on the Document window.
