   TipYou can also use the Attribute Editor Template Builder to create custom templates. Download this Bonus Tool online. See Help > Download Bonus Tools.
2. Save your template as AE<NodeType>.<NodeName>Template.xml where AE and Template designate the file as an Attribute Editor template, NodeType is the node type, and NodeName is the specific node for which the template is created.
