We would like to have the option to choose the Properties of a Template such as the Layer and Sampling in the menu when creating a Template. Basically combining the options in these two screen snaps.

I assume because you want to set it as it is created so that you dont have to edit its properties afterwards - is that the reason - I assume you know that these properties can be changed after it has been created?

I also agree that where we have properties that are hidden at create stage and defaulted to something where we have to go in afterwards to change them seems an unnecessary step - the reverse argument however is that we always have too many settings to control every time we want to create something - it is hard to win this battle ...

remembering last used settings is a good way however to mitigate that and in general I agree with you.

Please confrm that is why you want this

Yes to all.... I definitely understand the delicate balance! Maybe this would work? A standard that can be set and saved in the Project Template. Each template could still have it's individual properties modified but this would set the default.

I concede that this is from an aesthetic/organized project standpoint rather than a performance thing. The ZERO layer bothers me because it seems all "junk" ends up on that layer either by accident or intent then some templates get inadvertently deleted when someone is cleaning up the project. We try to stay as CLEAN as possible at all times.

However, the tips learned last week at the PUG are sure to lower the number of templates thus possibly lessening this trivial nuisance!
