Program Defaults

[erpike]

Is there a way to set defaults for the actual program? I know how to set defaults for individual drawings (mainly focused on dimension and font). But when you open a "New Plan" is there a way to set the program defaults so that you don't have to change them on every drawing?

Template plan.

 

Chief has global preferences which is for system preferences

 

Separate are Plan specific settings that you save in a template plan to begin each job with.

As the others mentioned look into saving one of your current Drawing where everything is setup as your New Plan Template.
