Pattern Registry

Pattern Organizer context menuNew Shortcut (or: Assign Pattern) 

The Pattern Registry defines the virtual hierarchy of patterns. When you create a folder or a shortcut in the Pattern Organizer and save the changes, a new entry is added to the registry of shortcuts. All operations with the contents of the Pattern Registry are performed in the Pattern Organizer, and synchronized with the registry.  

The window opens when using New Shortcut and Assign Pattern commands on the Pattern Organizer context menu.

The filters determine which patterns to display in the Patterns table. The Filters section provides the following set of filtering options:
