Templating Options Dialog Box
Use the Templating Options dialog box to prepare a templated control for template-editing mode. This dialog box enables you to select an applied device filter for which you want to define templates. It also provides a way to specify a markup language schema to use in Source view of the page designer when you edit template contents.
Notes
Template-editing mode in Design view is supported only for HTML-based templates. You must use Source view to edit the contents of non-HTML templates. However, you can prepare a control for template editing using the Templating Options dialog box in Design view.
To access this dialog box
In Visual Studio, open or create a new Mobile Web Form.
Switch to Design view.
From the Mobile Web Forms tab of the Toolbox, drag a templated control, such as the List or ObjectList control, into the mobile Form on the page.
Right-click the control and click Templating Options in the shortcut menu.
