Hi.
When I want to insert a variable into a document, the Variable dialog (Ctrl+Shift+V) always includes three variable sets; Heading, MyVariables and System. All the variables I use are located in the MyVariables set, and this set is the only one that can be edited. The default set names given by Flare mean that sorting in either direction leaves MyVariables in the middle, so I always have to move to the MyVariables set before I can select the variable I want. How do I delete/hide the other two sets?

Re: Unwanted variable sets in the Variables dialog
Rename it to an alphabetically superior name, so that it appears above the other two? FirstVariables, AAAVariables, etc.? The other folders are still there, but who cares, since yours is at the top?
It worked for me on Templates.
Good luck,
Leon

Re: Unwanted variable sets in the Variables dialog
The only problem with renaming variables is that Flare does not go through and change all the variables you may have already used in your project. So if you've already used variables, if you change the name of the variable group, all the variables you've already used from that group will break. You'll have to do a global Find / Replace in code to fix them (which isn't hard to do).
