Template Project

[dzatto]

I know you can create a template from a project that has the same setup, but no drawings. Is there a way to copy an entire project, drawings and all, and turn it into a "typical set of plans". Most of my buildings are the same. Before PN, I had a full set for the different variations. Front load, rear load, right hand office, left hand office, etc, etc. Is there a way to do that in PN or am I stuck with starting from scratch every time?

I'd have to look again, cause I can't remember off hand, but I believe you can copy and rename and entire project, then "refresh" the project. I think that works.

Could you please check again and point me in the right direction for the correct way to do this. I would surely appreciate it sir! :)

This should give you some good ideas. The ones on the Adesk site seem to provide better instructions.
Hope this helps.
Let us know what you find out for best ways. :beer:
