Creating and Saving Library Templates
You can save your custom library templates to the library for future use
You can save your own custom templates to the Library for use in future projects. A single template can include objects created in different stages—for example, you can save a water feature together with the surrounding landscaping as one template.
The button located at the bottom of the Library allow you to save customizations you have made to templates.
Save to Library: By saving a template you will create a new item in the Library.
It is recommended to save all custom templates you create to the library. This will allow you to quickly and easily insert your templates in all your future projects.
Save to Library
Click the Save to Library button to open the Create New Template dialog, which displays a preview image of your template. Use the drop‑down lists to choose the Category and Subcategory where you want to store the template, then enter a Name.
To add a new Category or Subcategory, simply type the new name into the field. Click OK when you are finished.
