Building-specific Template Drawing Library

You can save an active panel drawing as a building-specific template drawing. Save the drawing to a library already in the building, or create a new building-specific library.

1. Open a panel drawing you wish to save as a template drawing.

   Open Panel Drawing

2. Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu.
3. Select Save template drawing to project.
4. Do one of the following:
   • If there are not template drawing libraries in the building, enter a name for the library to be created in the text box.
   • If template drawing libraries exist in the building, select a library in the dialog box. Select the check box of the library.
   • If template drawing libraries exist in the building, you can create a new library by selecting Create new library in the dialog box.
5. Enter the properties of the template drawing in the dialog box.

6. Confirm by clicking OK.
7. If a file with the same name already exists in the building-specific template drawing library, you will be prompted: File [file_name.vxp] already exists, replace it? Select either of the following:
   • Yes - The existing file will be overwritten.
   • No - The Library Data of Template Drawing dialog box reopens, and you can enter a new file name.
8. Close the panel drawing.

When you create a panel drawing, you can recognize a building-specific template drawing library from the [P] mark.
