    Components missing after saving layout

    After saving a layout it might happen that it doesn't contain all components when it is reopened by another person on another computer. Please try to save the layout again by doing the following steps:

    - select in the menubar under 'File' > 'Email Layout'

    - This will open a new message window from your Email program and attach a .vcm file. This file has now not only the layout, but also all components included

    - Save the file attachment to your harddisk

    - Discard the message avter saving the file

    The saved layout file should now work on every installation on every computer with the right software, even if the person doesn't have the components.

    Re: Components missing after saving layout

    This has changed in the 2009 version. You now have an option to include components in the layout file when saving the layout.

    To include components in the layout file when saving the layout, check the check box labelled "Include components in package" in the Credits dialog.
