Creating Shortcuts in the Components View

Project:For installation projects, you can create shortcuts in the Shortcuts view.

Before you can create a shortcut, you must create a component that contains the file to which the shortcut is going to link.

To create a new shortcut:

1. In the View List under Organization, click Components.
2. In the Components explorer, expand the component that should be associated with the shortcut that you are creating, and then click Shortcuts. The Shortcuts explorer opens in a new pane.
3. In the Shortcuts explorer, right-click a destination folder and click either New Folder or New Shortcut. You can create a program folder if you want your shortcut to appear under your company name, for example.

If you created a folder for your shortcut, create the shortcut by right-clicking your new folder and clicking New Shortcut.

4. Define the shortcut’s properties.
