About Templates
A Project template provides a quick way to create a new project with predetermined file and folder associations.
Using the Standard Project template
The Project Manager is equipped with a Standard Project template (displayed in the New Project window).
The Standard Project template uses the default file and folder associations shown throughout this manual.
Important:
Do not delete the Standard Project template. Also, MTS recommends that you do not modify the
Standard Project template.
If you change the Standard Project template, anyone that creates a new Project created with the Standard
Project template inherits these changes—whether they know about them or not. Because of this, MTS
recommends that you create additional templates or use an existing Project as a template rather than modifying
the Standard Project template.
