5.11.3.3. [Template] with basic information

	Note
	The "Template" element contains basic information and is mandatory.

It contains the following attributes:

name

Name is the unique identifier for this sketch view. In other words, there may not exist another one by the same name.
unitbase

Indicates the basic unit in which the sketch view is defined.

hide (if not available, set the attribute by yourself)

With "hide=1" you can prevent the display of template under PARTdataManager -> 2D derivation -> Combination views.

	Note
	This option is possibly interesting, if you explicitly create dw files for other applications (e.g. PARTtemplateDesigner) or application purposes (e.g. for the PDF datasheet function).

Example:

[Template]
name=datasheet
unitbase=mm
hide=0/1

Depiction of cuts

You can also use cuts in 2D views.

Therefor specify sectional plane, cut direction (1/-1) and optionally offset in the block Template.

Example:

[Template]
cutPlaneType=YZ
cutPlaneDirection=1
cutPlaneDistance=0.0

Under "order", enter the desired views to be displayed:

[ELEMENT_grid1]
type=grid
padding_x=10
padding_y=10
padding_unit=percent
columns=2
rows=1
order=back,left

Example: On the left side the top view on the sectional plane, on the right side a side view on the sectional plane. In the side view a dotdashed line is displayed to mark the plane, arrows show the direction of view.

	Note
The dw definition has priority before the manual definition. It is only possible to enable the cut for the whole drawing, it applies for all views.

Note

The dw definition has priority before the manual definition.
