Excluding modules from a map
In base maps, the selection of a menu item menu typically includes all modules
associated with that menu item. In driver maps, the association of a filter to a
menu item typically defines which modules to include. You can also assign an
exclude feature to menu items. For example, you might have a base map that has
all of your application modules defined at the root level, and have a Management
menu item and a Non-management menu item. Assume your applications are
common for both management and non-management except for two
personnel-related tools that are for management use only. In the exclude tab for the
Non-management menu item, you can specify that the two personnel-related
modules are to be excluded. Then, during the installation process, if the
Management menu item is selected, all applications get installed. If the
Non-management menu item is selected, all applications get installed except for
the two personnel-related applications defined in the Exclude tab.
To exclude menu items, do the following:
1. Open the Repository window for the repository where the map resides.
2. If your repository contains folders, navigate to the folder where the map
resides.
3. In the right pane of the Repository window, click either Base Maps or Driver
Maps
depending on the type of map you want to modify. Then, double-click
the map you want to modify. The Map window opens.
4. In the left pane of the Map window, expand your menu items; then, highlight
the menu item you want to associate with the exclude operation.
5. In the Main window menu bar, click View and then click Properties. The
Menu Item Properties window opens.
6. Click the Exclude tab.
7. In the Exclude tab, click the Insert Operating System icon, Insert Application
icon, or Insert Device Driver icon depending on the type of module you want
to exclude. The Exclude window opens listing the modules that you can
exclude.
Note: The Exclude window shows all of the modules in your repository, not
just the modules currently defined in your map.
8. If your repository contains folders, navigate to the folder that contains the
module you want to exclude.
9. Highlight the module you want to exclude and then click OK.
10. Repeat steps 7 through 9 for each module you want to exclude. When all
excluded modules have been defined, close the Menu Item Properties window
and click the Save icon located in the Main window toolbar.
