Text layouts test tool
You can test Text layouts in Sales through a Test dialog. The Help section on the Layout Test Dialog provides more details, but here are some notes on the use of the Test layout functionality:
1. Press the Sales > Tools > Diagnostics > Test Layout button (or swipe %PPPP at the main dialog) to bring up the Layout Test Dialog.
2. Click the Select layout to test... dropdown list to select any available Global layout. The layout appears. Click Evaluate. The layout is rendered.
3. From the Select layout to test..., dropdown list, if Choose file... is selected, the user is able to browse and open any Text layout to test after checking the appropriate box (Saved Sale, Ticket or Credit Card). The default directory is the local Layouts folder.
4. The user can paste any Text layout onto the left pane of the Layout Test Dialog, check the appropriate box (Saved Sale, Ticket or Credit Card) and click Evaluate to test it. Changes can be made to the layout and the user can keep evaluating it until satisfied.
5. This dialog is designed for testing purposes only. The user must copy the final, corrected layout to another text editor such as Notepad and save it as a new layout. You cannot save from this pane.
