Changing the default Template for a custom one

Imported from Yahoo

Hi,
I understand you can create your own templates in Sailwave and know where to put them but not how to modify one.

For instance I publish my results into Excel then spend time changing the justification of Helm Name, Crew name and class from centered to left. Can I do this in my own custom template to save time, if so where do I do that please?

I think this could be done via a Style template.

If you use one of the supplied styles (usually in C:/Program Files/Sailwave/Styles), you can modify it to your requirements.

e.g. using Blue Blocks, if you open it using Notepad, it can be seen that there is a line

.race, .rank {text-align: center;}

Change that to :

.race, .rank {text-align: left;}

Save the file in the Styles subdirectory My Styles.

Then, when you next use the Blue Blocks style, Sailwave will use the Blue Blocks style stored in My Templates and produce an output with names, etc. left justified.
