I can not save changes in my part list (.idw), changes are only temporary

[andreas_schleif]

Hello,
I can't save the changes to my component list.
I would like the changes I have made to the parts list and the parts list within a drawing to remain permanently changed in a template. But I cannot press the save button. (green bordered on the pic)
Thank you very much for your efforts

Regards
Andreas

What changes are you referring to? Are they formatting changes? Do you want these to be the same all the time for every drawing? Can you explain more of what you are exactly doing?

Hello

I have added the columns Material, Masse, Schnittdetail1 und Schnittdetail2.
Yes, I would like these additions to be listed in every drawing that is created with a specific template.

With kind regards

Andreas

Then those need to be done in the template in your styles editor. That way, when you create new drawings, they will always appear that way. Once saved, make sure your project settings have use style library set to read-write. 

This will allow you to save the settings to the style library by going to the manage tab > styles and standards panel > save.

Then any old drawings you open, you can choose to "update" the styles from the styles library to bring that drawing up to your current standard by going to Manage tab > Styles and standards panel > Update.
