84. XXE.openAsTemplate

Parameter syntax:

[ file_name | URL ]?

Creates a new document using an existing document as a template. After loading a copy of the existing document, all the content of the copy is discarded to just keep a valid skeleton of the root element.

Without a parameter, this command displays the file chooser dialog box to let the user specify an existing document.

Parameters:

file_name or URL

Specifies which document to use as a template.

Returns newly created com.xmlmind.xmledit.doc.Document (for use by higher-level commands) or Command.EXECUTION_FAILED if specified template cannot be opened or if user has canceled the command.
