A template view contains variables and comments that may be included on other sketches. This is useful for creating a master header, notice, or navigation menu that appears on each view of your model.

 

There is only one template view per model.

 

Any view may be converted to the template view by checking Template View on the View menu.

 

template1

 

The template may then be used in other sketches by checking Use Template.

 

For example, the following template,

 

template2

 

can be applied as a header to structure views in the same model, as:

 

template3

 

Typically, it is good practice to organize your views, using View>Reorder, placing the template and other inessential sketches at the bottom of the list.
