KayEll Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Two questions: 1) I was wondering if there is a way to copy only 1 or 2 rules from an existing file to another file. I know the trick for copying everything, the whole structure, but some of my files have tons of resources and rules and I find I just want a couple of the rule to come over. I have been just opening them, copying the script and then switching to the new file, creating a new rule and pasting. Is there a quicker way to just grab one rule? I don't want to necessarily grab everything because then I have to delete all the unused ones, or else have a huge window to scroll through. 2) Also, on a "slightly" related note, I had a weird problem yesterday. Was transferring the entire structure using this method: Fusion Pro > Data Definition > Wizard Select "Import Data Source From Another Document". Navigate to the ".def" file. Then, FusionPro > Advanced > Import Navigate to the original PDF. However, the last 3 rules I had written in the original file were NOT copied over. I went and opened the original, and sure enough the rules were there. I ended up just copying and pasting the script in to a whole new rule and making sure I named it exactly the same, but that has never happened before. Anyone else have that happen to them? Thanks for the help. KayEll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Pershing Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 The .def file was not updated after the last rules were added. Compose a single record to update the .def and .dif files. All of your latest changes will then be applied to the files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayEll Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 Thanks Doug, I figured that saving the file saved all the rules. That's good to know. KayEll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loytoy Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Ok, so I'm having the same problem. I used the original file to compose a single record and update the .def file and then tried the same import to the new file and I still don't get all my rules to show up. I'm VERY new to FusionPro so be gentle. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshobar Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 loytoy- try deleting the .def file and compose again in make sure you are importing from the correct file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loytoy Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Yep... Done that. Tried to compose again (even composing the entire file) and it doesn't show ANY of my rules. It's pulling in content but no rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
