Using Templates

I think templates are under-appreciated. That might be because they're so easy to set up, once you figure out who to do it. But for me, I wanted to the default template to reflect my preferences for buses, colors, etc.

To create a template:

• Open a new project.
• Change everything to the way you'd like it.
• Save the project as a template (see the dialog box below). Make sure Save as Type is set to template, and that you choose the template files folder.

Easy, right? But saving my default configuration as a template has saved tons of time for me with a really small time investment up front.
