Use this function to browse for and select a template. When this function is selected, the Select Template for New Part dialog appears, through which you are able to browse for a specific template (*.CKT) file.

Template files are a sub-type of CKD file and use a unique file extension, .CKT (Template). A template is essentially a blank design file that can be customized to contain your specific settings. Geometry cannot be "carried" by a template file, only settings.

Template files are created using the Save or Save As options, accessible through the Application Menu, and saving a part to the (*.CKT) file type. Once a template is saved, you will be able to open a new part by a specific template that you specify, using this Choose Template function. The new part will contain the specific settings that had been saved to the template you had specified.
