The library is the place to go, if you want to install new (or delete) resources in InterFormNG2. The only alternative are the tenant export and import.
You should install the resources via the web-interface only - do not copy resources into the directories directly via e.g. file explorer.
The library covers all the resources:
The procedure to upload resources is also covered in this video:
All of the resources except the fonts and styles can be put into sub-folders.
To create a sub-folder for a specific resource you simply select the resource type in the library, select the main folder (if you want to create the folder inside another folder) here:
and then click the New Folder icon on the left:
- and type in the name of the new folder in the pop up window:
If you want to delete a sub-folder in the library, then you simple place the mouse of the folder. On the very right you will see the icon below. Click the icon to delete the folder (or file):
It is possible (but not recommended as no references to the resources inside are updated) to rename a sub-folder and other resources in the Library from the web-interface. In order to do that you should select the main folder in the Library and then click on the pencil icon to the right of the folder, that you want to rename:
Now this warning window will pop up:
You should only proceed, if you are 100% sure, that the resources inside of this folder are not used by any other elements in InterFormNG2. If you are sure, you can simply type the new name of the folder and click Rename.
Now you can select all or some of the objects:
If you click the checkbox marked with 1, then you select all object. Click the checkbox again to de-select all the objects.
You can select/de-select each object by clicking the checkbox next to the object like indicated with 2 on the image above.
After you have selected the object you can use the action above the list to either delete or move the objects to another folder.
Refresh the object list
The first icon from the left refreshed the object list.
List object as tiles
If you select the second icon, then the objects are listed as tiles like below:
Detailed list
With the third icon the objects are listed as a detailed list like below:
You can choose which columns, that are to be displayed in the Library via this option on the top left:
If you click this line, then you will see this list of columns to choose from:

You can open and edit the object types mentioned above by simply double clicking on the object. Then you will see this:
You can start editing the file, if you click the EDIT icon on the top left. Then the window looks like below:
In the top right you can see the two actions available:

The changes to the file are not saved until you click the save icon. If you click the cancel icon without saving the last changes you are asked if the changes should be discarded.
Undo the changes
After you have run a search and replace the undo icon is enabled:
If you click the undo icon the last search and replace run is rolled back.
If you click Edit text in the file editor, then you will see a screen like below:
On the right you see a slider, which you can use to see the lower part of the file.
To edit the file you simply replace, delete or add the text by typing/deleting.
You can even place the cursor inside the edit window and hold down left <CTRL> while pressing the 'A' key to select all the text and you can then click <CTRL> and 'C' to copy the text into the clipboard and paste it into your favorite editor and here the changes here and then copy the text back when you are done.
Please note, that this is a simple text editor. It does not verify the syntax of the file, so you need to ensure yourself, that the file is still valid.
Undo
The undo icon in the top rolls back the last change in the editor.
Save
Remember to click the Save icon on the bottom right, when you want to save changes to the file. No actual changes are done until the save icon has been clicked.
