Create a Document

The first step to creating a TigerKit is to create a new version of a document.



Visit this section of the user guide if you’re unsure or just need a quick refresher.

Apply Document Settings 

It's essential that a Style and Security Rule is applied to the document before it can be set as a TigerKit. Settings are applied on the 'Manage Document' page - simply select the tab, choose an option from the drop-down list, and save.

To create a new setting, select 'Documents' from the main menu followed by 'Settings'.

Set as TigerKit 

To begin, navigate to the version of a document that you would like to set as a Tiger Kit,

  • Select the select 'Manage Version' button.

  • Select 'TigerKit Settings'.

  • Tick the 'TigerKit' checkbox. 

  • Enter a suitable name and description for the TigerKit.

Ensure the description is clear and concise so TigerGenius Users understand what the kit is for and when to use it.

Publishing

Choose if TigerGenius Users can publish documents created from the TigerKit themselves, or if documents should be published automatically.

Settings

Any settings you have applied to the document will be displayed here as read-only and will always be enforced whenever TigerGenius Users creates a document from the TigerKit.

Add Interactivity and TigerGenius Settings 

Once you have set which panels are editable in the TigerKit, you can repeat the process for interactivity.

Link to a webpage, iFrame and Download a File modules can be set as editable for a TigerGenius Setting.

  • Select the 'Interactivity' tab from the top menu in TigerDesigner.

  • Select a module, followed by 'TigerGenius Settings'.

  • Tick which parts of the module will be editable in the TigerKit , and enter a Title and Description so the TigerGenius User knows what to complete.

In the above example, a Download PDF File module has been set as editable, so the TigerGenius User can upload a PDF when they use the TigerKit.

Exit and Update

When you’re happy with your changes, exit TigerDesigner, making sure that ‘Update Document’ is selected.
