Description

TemplateData

Required element.

Categorizes the template and defines how it displays in either the New Project.

Text Value

A text value is required.

Valid text values are:

  • Enabled, which specifies that the Location box of the New Project dialog box is enabled.

  • Disabled, which specifies that the Location box of the New Project dialog box is disabled.

  • Hidden, which specifies that the Location box of the New Project dialog box is hidden.

The value specified in the Location element is only honored by the dialog box if the underlying project system supports it.
