Templates

To provide a simple alternative to the fairly complicated Signature XML.

Create custom template

Start of with an empty signature of one of the following sizes.

  • 468x136 (ARC limit)
  • 468x60 (Full size banner)
  • 350x70 (Half size banner)
  • 350x19 (Userbar)
  • 234x60

The easiest way is to enter simple mode and use the wizard, create a signature using a template and then switch back to advanced mode.

The template options is set inside a XML comment (<!-- -->) on the first line spanning multiple lines down.

Example

<!--
Template data goes here
-->
<signature>
    <layout>
        <text>
            <line>Hello World!</line>
        </text>
    </layout>
</signature>

Syntax

The template data is whitespace sensitive. It means that indentation is crucial. An indentation level can be either a tab or 4 spaces. Anything more or less will cause things to malfunction.

Group:
    title:       Group title
    description: Group description

    variable:
        title:            Variable name
        description:      Variable description
        module:           modulename
            argumentname: value

In short this means the following:

  • No indentation means the beginning of a new group.
  • One level of indentation means the beginning of a variable unless name equals title or description.
  • Two levels of indentation contains variable properties such as title, description and properties.
  • Third level contains arguments passed to the module.

The colons are important. Everything without the colon is considered a comment regardless of the indentation level.
