Creating a Variable Set

A variable set contains all your Smart Preflight variables that can be used within your preflight profiles. You can create more than one Variable Set and each set can have multiple variables defined. However, you can have only one "active" variable set per PitStop Server Flow element. It is recommended that you keep all your variables within one Variable Set however this is not a restriction, just a recommendation.

Follow the steps given below to create a Variable Set:
  1. In the Properties pane of the PitStop Server configurator, locate the Variable set property and click this button. Click the Select variable set option in the pop-up menu. This will bring up the Select variable set: Variable Set panel. This panel will display all the Variable Sets available in your PitStop Server installation as well as any local Variable Sets that have been defined.
  2. With the Select variable set: Variable Set panel open, select the Manage... drop-down menu and New from the sub-menu. This will open the Enfocus Variable Set Editor dialog using which you can create and open a new Variable Set that will be saved to your "Local" folder.
  3. You can also edit a variable set, right click a variable set name in the Select variable set: Variable Set panel and click Edit option in the contextual menu or click Edit in the Manage... drop-down menu. This will open the Enfocus Variable Set Editor dialog using which you can modify the variable set.
