Use this dialog box to set up a settings template to control the stylization, AutoCAD layer, and other settings for objects that are created in the drawing when ArcGIS data is imported.
You can access this dialog box from the
Import Layers dialog box when you are
setting up a settings template.
Styles, layers, and sites must exist in the drawing in order to specify them in a settings template. For gravity pipes and structures, a default ArcGIS Network pipe network selection is available, or you can create a pipe network in the drawing prior to defining the settings template which you can then select. For point groups, a default ArcGIS Layer Name point group and the _All Points point group are available by default to select, or you can define a point group in the drawing prior to defining the settings template which you can then select.
Note: Settings templates are not supported for refreshing ArcGIS data. To apply a settings template to additional data, you must reimport the data source.
