They're listed in the "File > New From Template..." submenu. +A template may store any document-specific settings (such as initial +zoom and view, paper size, background and borders, metadata, window +geometry, grid and guide settings, export hints) as well as any +objects. To add a new template, simply use "File > Save Template". +Alternatively you can manually save or copy it into this folder or +(preferred option) to the corresponding "templates" directory in your +profile directory. + +Procedural templates are located in the adjacent 'extensions' +directory. By convention, they begin with 'empty_'. + + +## Default template ## + +At startup or when creating a new document, Inkscape will load the +default template, which is named "default.svg". A localized version in +the current locale (default.*.svg) will be preferred over the English +version if available. To customize the default template simply use +"File > Save Template" and make sure to enable "Set as default +template". Alternatively you can manually edit the files in this +folder or (preferred option) save or copy them to the corresponding +"templates" directory in your profile directory. Default templates in +the profile directory will always be preferred over the stock versions +that ship with Inkscape (i.e. the files in this folder). |
