Export an object grid to an XML file

System Control Table (SCT) : Using the SCT : Organizing Scalar Data in the Object Grid : Export an object grid to an XML file

Use this procedure to export the entire object grid configuration of an SCT to an XML file. The configuration includes the cell layout and assigned objects and slot lists. This is useful for transferring an object grid from one SCT to others.

1. Go to the Object Grid tab.

2. Right-click any cell in the object grid and select Export Configuration in the shortcut menu.

The Windows File Chooser opens.

3. In the File Chooser, navigate to the folder where you want to save the object grid configuration. In the File name field, enter a name with a .xml extension.

Note: The extension is not assigned automatically; you must enter it explicitly.

4. Select Save.

The file is saved to the specified location. Optionally, you can view the contents of the file by opening it in a text editor, such as Notepad.
