Wondering what is meant by "operation mode" when defining a new delta template.
The only reference I can find is in the Omega Handbook: Your first Delta Snapshot.
By default “Override all values” is selected. For most all use-cases now you will want to leave this setting alone. If you have a reason to set it otherwise you will know why.
It is sadly uninformative and appears to be wrong, since with version 7.x-3.0-beta9 the default is "Only override different values".
Presumably this setting also relates to the message:
This template operates in Preserve mode.
when configuring a template?
Love to know what this refers to.
Thanks for your time.

JoeAndrieu CreditAttribution: JoeAndrieu commentedI have the same question. "This template operates in Preserve mode" appears in the delta settings for my new template, but I can't find documentation as to what that actually means.

I guess it means that the values not overriden are preserved from the original, but.. just a guess.
Greetings.

matt.rad CreditAttribution: matt.rad commentedDelfio2d2 is correct. When you edit your Delta template, you can choose whether it will override everything ("override mode") or just the stuff that you change ("preserve mode").
