Save Model Template Dialog

Export selected model parts as base templates for creating new Innovator models or as add-on templates for extending existing models.

Purpose

Enter the name of a template file in the Save Model Template dialog in order to export the selected model part as the base template for the creation of a new Innovator model or as an add-on template for the enhancement of an existing model.

You also then need to export the configuration from the configuration editor if you want to create a base template.

The icon and purpose of the template are always taken from the model root.

Prerequisites

  • You require model administrator rights.
  • The model elements to be added to the template need to be selected.

Call

Open the Save Model Template dialog with Model>Administrative Tasks>Load & Save>Export to Model Template....

Structure

Enter the file name (excluding extension) you want in the Name field. You can select an existing file from the drop-down list to overwrite.

Decide whether you want to create a template for creating new models (Base Template) or for loading in running Innovator models (Add-on Template) in the Save As group.

Start the export with the Export button.

The file is stored in the $INOPRJ/config/addon directory.
