Action: XSettingsImport


Parameters

Description

XMLFile

Enter the directory and the name of the file to be imported here. You must first have generated the file using the command path File > Settings and via the popup menu item Export <...>. You can also enter path variables.

Node

'Node' of the settings to be imported. If you open the previously exported file in Internet Explorer, you can see and accept the name of the node.

  • To import all user-specific, workstation-specific and company-specific settings from the XML file, do not specify a node.
  • To import all user-specific, workstation-specific or company-specific settings from the XML file, enter the corresponding category name "USER", "STATION" or "COMPANY" from the "CAT name" field of the XML file as a node.
    If, for example, only the "USER" node is specified, all user-specific settings are imported.
  • To import only specific user-specific, workstation-specific or company-specific settings from the XML file, specify the following as a node: Category name "USER", "STATION" or "COMPANY" as prefix + name of the settings block from the XML file.
    To this purpose, set a point between the prefix and the name of the settings block.
  • To import all project-specific settings from the XML file, do not specify a node. However, enter a target project for the "Project" parameter.
  • To import only specific project-specific settings from the XML file, specify the following as a node: Not a category name as a prefix, but only the name of the settings block from the XML file. In addition, you have to specify a target project for the "Project" parameter.

Project

Set this parameter exclusively and absolutely for the import of project-specific settings. Enter the name of the target project into which the project-specific settings from the specified XML file are to be imported. Without specification of a target project, project-specific settings cannot be imported.

Option

Options for controlling the import:

  • INSERT: Insert settings if not yet available.
  • OVERWRITE: Settings and default values are overwritten.
  • UPDATE: Settings are overwritten.
