other machines.

- Select the module you want to download and click Next.
- Outside of the IDE, go to your userdir/update/download directory
and copy the module's .nbm file to another directory. Leave a copy
of the file in the download directory.
- Return to the Update Center wizard. If you want to install the module in
your IDE, click Finish. If you do not want to install the module, click Cancel.
To install a module offline:

Update
Center from the main window.

Modules button and click Next.

the file and click OK.

If you the module that you have selected in the file chooser does not
appear in the Available Updates and New Modules panel, you probably already have
the same version or a new version of that module installed. Open the Setup
Wizard to make sure that you have that module enabled. |
