In Virtual Surveyor, you can save your layer categories and the materials used for stockpiles in a template that can be reused for each new project.


Overview


Create a Template

First, you'll need to create or open a project that contains the layer structure and/or the materials you would like to save. 


Once you have your layers and/or materials created:

  1. Go to File (via the Backstage View).
  2. Click Save As Template.
  3. Give a name to your template.
  4. Click Confirm to save it.



Assign a Template to a Project

  1. Create a new project.
  2. Choose the appropriate template in the dropdown menu. 
  3. Click Create Project to create a new Virtual Surveyor project that contains the template layer structure and/or materials.


Note: a template can only be applied when creating a new project.




Rename or Delete Templates

To rename or delete templates, go to the Settings panel in the Backstage View (File > Settings > Templates).
