    • To create your resource from an existing file, specify the path to the file in the Resource file field or click Browse to browse to it.

      The resource is automatically named after the specified file. You can rename it if needed.

    • To create your resource from scratch, simply give your resource a name.
  3. Click Finish to create the resource and close the wizard.
    • If the resource is created from an existing file, a new file named after the resource with the same content is created in the <PROJECT_NAME>\resources folder in the workspace directory and the content is displayed in the default editor or in a text editor on the design workspace depending on the content type. You can edit the content if needed.
    • If the resource is created from scratch, an empty .txt file named after the resource is created in the <PROJECT_NAME>\resources folder in the workspace directory and opened on the design workspace for you to provide the content.
