What are letter categories?
Letter categories in Cintra iQ serve as organizational tools for managing and sorting letter definitions. They function essentially as folders, grouping various letter definitions under specific thematic or functional umbrellas.
Note:
The category remains hidden until you attach a letter to it. If you do not save your new letter to a specific category, it is automatically saved to the Uncategorised category.
To create a letter category
- Navigate to the Letter Categories window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Workspace or Definitions> Letters> Letter Definitions window> Category Maint button> Letter Categories window - Click the Insert button. The Insert Category dialog appears.
- Enter the category's name.
- Click the OK button. The category is displayed in the Letter Categories window.
- Continue to create a letter.
Note:
Once you have created the category, you can attach a letter to it by selecting it from the Category drop down list in the Create Letter Definition window. You can also attach it by opening an existing letter and selecting from the Category drop down list in the Edit Letter Definition window. For more information, see How Do I Assign Data to a Letter?
