yuuvis® RAD Template Editor

yuuvis® RAD designer 10.x »

The yuuvis® RAD Template Editor is an add-in for Microsoft Word used to add controls to documents that are linked to object type fields and object properties. Documents with controls can be integrated as a template into yuuvis® RAD client. When creating a document file from a template, the controls can be populated or replaced with the relevant metadata and properties via data transfer. Data transfers can also be performed via the yuuvis® RAD Office Add-In.

The template function is enabled by default; the data transfer to templates is disabled by default.

The add-in integrates the yuuvis® RAD Templates tab into the Microsoft Word ribbon:
