Creating a Data Shortcut Project Template

Product Documentation
Intermediate

Create a new template if the sample template is not suitable.

To create your own project template, copy the default template, _Sample Project and save it with a new name. To maintain the automatic storage of new data shortcut XML files, do not change the _Shortcuts folder and its subfolders. Your new project template appears on the list of templates when you create a new data shortcut folder.

To create a new template for data shortcut projects

  1. Navigate to the folder C:\Civil 3D Project Templates.
  2. Copy the folder _Sample Project, then paste it in the same location and rename it. This is your new template.
  3. Open your new template and review the structure of folders and subfolders.
  4. Do not change the top-level folder, _Shortcuts, or any folders inside it, but feel free to change the names of other folders and their hierarchical structure.
