At present you make setting the Default Template too complicated. REQUEST: When you crate/edit a template of any type, in the Save Dialog for templates there should be a Check-Box "Set as Default": [ ] Set as Default This would be a much simpler way to change Default Templates.
UX: what do you think?
Created attachment 118854 [details] save template dialog Yes it would be useful to have a checkbox in the dialog for entering in the template name (File > Templates > Save As Templates) to be able to set that it be the default template, rather than after adding it to the list of templates, to reopen the template manager to set it to default.
Setting as NEW from comment #2. It is a valuable enhancement request. Best regards. JBF
