| Name
|
The
Name drop down list is where you select a
template to open or edit. You can type in a new template name and build the new
template from the settings of the previous template. This way, you do not have
to make the same settings for every new drawing template.

| Dialog tabs
|
The main body of the dialog is where you set drawing
attributes such as symbol locations, pipeline labels, and so on. There are six
attribute types designated with its own tab. The contents of each tab are
discussed independently later in this chapter. (See Drawing Properties,
Symbols, Drawing Title Text, Reports, Drawing Levels, and Pipeline Tags.)

| Drawing/Template Actions
|
The
Drawing Actions command buttons are used to
open, save, or close a drawing (Open when there is not a
drawing open;
Save As and
Close when a drawing is open). The
Template Actions command buttons are used to
Save the template or
Close the Template Editor.
Note: When a drawing
is open, every aspect of
PlantWise is locked except the
Save As and
Close buttons of the
PlantDrafter Template Editor. Only after a drawing
has been closed will
PlantWise transactions be unlocked.
