Exercise caution when you change an event frame template, since there can be unintended consequences. For example, attributes could be deleted if they were defined by the old template and are not present in the new template. Be sure that attributes with the same name in both the old and new template have the same data type.
You can change the template on which an existing event frame is based, or add a template to an event frame that is not currently based on a template.
-
In the navigator, click Event Frames.

In the Event Frames browser, right-click the Event Frame Searches collection and click New Search.

In the Event Frame Search window, enter criteria to locate the event frame that you want to change.

Right-click the appropriate event frame in the browser and click Convert > Change Template.

Optional. To display only templates in a specific category, select a category from the Templates of category list.
