Extract package

Use the option to Merge Elps> Extract package when you want to unbundle your work in smaller files.

  1. In the content tree you will select the node from which you want to extract the content.

  2. Clicking on the right mouse button will show us the option "Extract package". It is possible to access this option from the menu File> Merge Elps.

  3. Selecting the option will open a navigation window where you can give a new name to the package that you are going to create.

Note the elp obtained from the extraction retains in the properties tab the name of the original author. As a title, it will show by default the one of the parent node, but the rest of the fields will have to be filled in as it is a new content.
