Using CPA sp1

I have followed the instruction below. However, whenever I make any changes:
1) The original file (which I had changed the extension to .zip and then
changed back CAT) disappears
2) My new template doesn't show.

What could I be doing wrong?

Try replacing the XML file in the zip rather than making a new zip file and
append .old to the file name of the original catx. You don't need to use the
same file name for the old and new ones - but you can only have one with the
same display name (which is in the catx - I haven't really looked where to
change it though). I always restart the CPA after editing the template.

Oh, and File, Application settings, show all with uniform settings can
override the template.

Here is a screenshot sample -
http://www.xsolive.com/Outlook%20Scr...orm.aspx?ID=64 -
I removed all bolding from the file (although it's not noticeable in all
fields) - I resized all size 14 fonts to size 8, resized 2 of the 3 footer
elements, and removed the 30 min scale.

I give up. It doesn't matter how small a change I make, when I change
anything the template goes away when I reopen CPA. I've tried the following:

1) Changing the extension to .zip, editing the Content.xml file and
replacing the old one.
2) Using WinZip to open the .CATX file directly, changing the Content.XML
file.

I don't know if this matters or not, but I noticed that when using WinZips
"add and replace" it doesn't replace the old Content.xml file, I have to
delete it. And, when I open to edit the file directly (using method 2 above)
it adds a new Content.xml file and I have to delete the original.

Also, I noticed that when I go to replace my edited .CATX file with the
original (which I had copied to another location as a back up) the original
file was twice the size as my edited one.

something is not right - the copied original should not change in size at
all. I copy the original in-place and tack 'copy' on to the extension so it
doesn't mess up the CPA. The sizes of edited catx may change slightly, but
not by much, since you can't make a lot of changes to them.

I extract the files to a folder, change the xml then open the catx in
winzip, explorer view. I browse to the folder where the xml belongs and drop
the changed one on the winzip window. This method seems to be the most
efficient, least problematic way.

The template I edited for the screenshot is here - the original needs
renamed so CPA 'sees' it.

After close review I think the issue was lack of understanding how to use
WinZip. I finally got it to work!

(thank goodness, because I'm way behind on my actual work)

I looked over this string of posts and it was helpful for me. One additional
question that I thought you might be able to help with. Do you know what
part of the "content.xml" file controls the location of the date on the
monthly calendar? I was able to change the font size based on your
instructions but would also like to change the location from the center as it
is by default to maybe the bottom or bottom corner of the square. Any help
is appeciated.

Is there a way to change the font size of the dates in the Month
Views

In the standard monthly calendar 1 (Month_StandardMonth01.catx), day format
is at approx row 87:
DayFormat
Grid RowSetting="*" ColumnSetting="*" Height="Auto"
Style="LevelLeafParent"
CalendarText Row="0" Column="0" FontSize="30pt"
FontWeight="Bold" Text="#[%d]" FontFamily="style!FontMajor"
VerticalAlignment="Bottom" HorizontalAlignment="Right"

I added VerticalAlignment="Bottom" HorizontalAlignment="Right" to the
calendar text row and changed the 46pt font to 30pt.

To help you find it in any layout that uses different color text for
weekdays and weekends, look for something like the following in the code and
look in the same section (should always be DayFormat section) for the line
with the font size. Add (or change) the Vertical and Horizontal alignment.
Foreground
SolidColorBrush Color="style!mainDark1" Tint=".7"/
/Foreground
ConditionalFormat Condition="DayOfWeek eq 'sun'"
Foreground
SolidColorBrush Color="style!WeekendColor" Tint=".7"/
/Foreground
/ConditionalFormat
ConditionalFormat Condition="DayOfWeek eq 'sat'"
Foreground
SolidColorBrush Color="style!WeekendColor" Tint=".7"/

following:

1) Changing the extension to .zip, editing the Content.xml file and
replacing the old one.
2) Using WinZip to open the .CATX file directly, changing the
Content.XML
file.

I don't know if this matters or not, but I noticed that when using
WinZips
"add and replace" it doesn't replace the old Content.xml file, I have
to
delete it. And, when I open to edit the file directly (using method 2
above)
it adds a new Content.xml file and I have to delete the original.

Also, I noticed that when I go to replace my edited .CATX file with the
original (which I had copied to another location as a back up) the
original
file was twice the size as my edited one.

Try replacing the XML file in the zip rather than making a new zip

append .old to the file name of the original catx. You don't need to
use
the
same file name for the old and new ones - but you can only have one
with
the
same display name (which is in the catx - I haven't really looked
where
to
change it though). I always restart the CPA after editing the
template.

Oh, and File, Application settings, show all with uniform settings can
override the template.

Here is a screenshot sample -

I removed all bolding from the file (although it's not noticeable in
all
fields) - I resized all size 14 fonts to size 8, resized 2 of the 3
footer
elements, and removed the 30 min scale.

Using CPA sp1

I have followed the instruction below. However, whenever I make any
changes:
1) The original file (which I had changed the extension to .zip and
then
changed back CAT) disappears
2) My new template doesn't show.

What could I be doing wrong?
