Saving Drawing Document Settings

I searched and couldn't find any advice on this issue.

 

I want to edit the document settings for the drawing of a part (such as line width, arrow heads etc.). Is there any way to save these settings or setting them as a standard to have them in all drawings?

 

 

Thanks in advance

You can save all your Drawing Document setting by creating a Drawing Template.  If you then start your drawing using this template you will have the settings repeated.  The only thing is the creation of a Drawing Template can only be done using a Fusion Subscription License.  Even it you have someone create one for you, it still cannot be used without having a Subscription License.

Thanks for the help! It worked (most of it)!

 

One last question since that did not work.

I inserted an image to the drawing template something like a logo and placed it in the area box right below but that does not show up in the loaded template when I want to draw something in a built component (but the rest does work, thanks for that!)

 

Thanks in advance

I do not know what to tell you, as you can see it is easily done as I show in the video.  Be sure you are using a standard graphic format such as JPG or PNG for your image.

Thanks for taking the time. 

Yes, I inserted the image correctly in the template and saved it but (and idk why) it doesn't show up when starting a drawing of a new part. 

 

I tried two image files, one jpg and one png but neither works. 

I could screenshot both, the template and the started drawing but its as easy described, haha. 

 

 

Don't know how I could make it work.
