Setting a Projects CMS
By default a Blocs project is set to allow you to use any of the available CMS options throughout your project. However, it’s also possible to set a Blocs project to be targeted to one specific CMS. The benefit of doing this is, there are less options to select from on the contextual menu when making areas CMS editable and the Export Project option from the file menu automatically detects the CMS project type and exports your project accordingly to work with that CMS, meaning you don’t need to navigate to and use the dedicated export option for that CMS type.
To set a projects target CMS to a specific one, first navigate to the main project settings by navigating to File > Project settings from the apps main menu.
Once the project settings option sheet is open, navigate to the last option in the sheet navigation, this option is represented by 3 dots. Left Clicking this icon will open the miscellaneous project options.
From the miscellaneous project options you can set the projects target CMS using the drop down menu button labelled Project CMS.
