Specifying base-map settings

Base-map settings control the overall appearance of the menu system and the
overall behavior of the installation. To specify or change a base-map setting, do the
following:
1.

Open the repository where the map resides.

2.

If your repository contains folders, navigate to the folder where the base map
resides.

3.

In the right pane of the Repository window, click the Base Maps tab. A list of
base maps is displayed.

4.

Double-click the appropriate base map. The Base Map window opens.

5.

In the Main window menu bar, click Tools and then click Settings.... The Map
Settings window opens.

v

In the General tab, you can do the following:
– If you want to add comments to the map, you can do so by typing

free-form text in the Comments field. The Word Wrap check box enables
you to automatically wrap text within the confines of the Comments field
or establish your own line length and use a horizontal scroll bar.

– If you want to add keywords to your map, you can do so by typing one

or more keywords in the Keywords to Associate with this Map field. You
can use any characters in a keyword except for the vertical bar (|) and the
ampersand (&). Separate keywords with a space.

Note:

Keywords enable the developer to create Deployment Media that
limits the selection of maps to only those that have one or more
matching keywords. The ImageUltra Builder program automatically
assigns some keywords to maps based on the certain map settings
and the build status. You can manually assign other keywords to
maps through the Map Settings window. For more information
about predefined keywords and how keywords are used, refer to
the ImageUltra Builder help system.
