Our new 2011 software has now been installed and set up although our previous template does not come through and it seems to have disappeared from the 2010 templates folder... any ideas where else it could have located itself:? and if it would just be easier to re create a new template?

if so how do you start with a blank page to there on sketch your templates?

 

thanks

Open an new drawing and in the model tree you will find a folder called drawing resources. Maximise this folder and then maximise the title block folder, Right click on ISO (or whatever is default) and click edit. This will take you into the title block editor. Do what you have to do. Note in the text properties you can input model parameters and such as required.

 

Click finish sketch when done and save.

 

Before you shut down the drawing goto the big yellow I and save as template, this will take you directly to your template folder and save under whatever you choose.

Probably obvious now, but for future reference you should always have a backup of your company template in a secure, known location before upgrading software versions.

Yeah all the little things i know i should have tried clicked in once the first bit of advice was given. As for the software it was changed whilst i was on holiday which was a little unfortunate i suppose! Makes it even worse as obviously they have changed all the log in details etc and it made a bit of an issue with file paths but i seem to have that sorted now!

 

Opps just realised im in caps :/ sorrryy
