You can change the template component type without losing any of the information it contains.

Remember that you can only insert a header and a footer once in a template. In addition, if you change the template component to a row, you must define the content type for the row.

  1. Select the component to crop.
  2. Click Edit > Change Type. A dialog box opens prompting you to select a new template component type.
  3. Select the template component type and click OK.

    Template Editor changes the component type in the Workarea and the Content Browser.

  4. Save the changes.
