Template Creation from an SDD

The second drop-down box in the toolbar contains a list of SDDs that are loaded. The one that is displayed in this box is the active or current SDD. You can change the active SDD by selecting from the SDDs in the list. To create a template from the active SDD, select SDD Development | Make Template. This will open a Text tab containing a document with empty tags and attributes. Handling for various elements is summarized below:

SDD Construct	Handling
Required Tags/Blocks	Will appear the minimum number of times required for a structurally valid document.
Optional Tags/Blocks	Will appear at least once.
Blocks	Blocks will be enclosed within comments to demarcate their boundaries.
Ors	All Ors will appear and be enclosed within comments to demarcate their boundaries.
Required Attributes	The name will appear but no value will be assigned.
Optional Attributes	Will not appear.
