Issue: 

When I create a new drawing using the New command or the New button in the ribbon, the drawing is created immediately without allowing me to select a DWT template file. 

How can I check which DWT template is being used, or specify one?

Solution:

We can control whether ZWCAD prompts for a template using one of two methods.


Method I: Prompt for Template on Each New Drawing

  1. Type STARTUP in the command line and set its value to 1
  2. Type FILEDIA and ensure its value is 1
  3. Now, when we use the New command, the New Drawing dialog box will appear.
  4. Switch to the Use a Template File tab and select the desired template file.


Method II: Specify the default template

  1. Press Win+R to open the Run window, and enter regedit to open the Registry Editor.
  2. Navigate to the LastTemplate registry name under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ZWSOFT\ZWCAD\(your yearly version)\(your language)\Settings\UserConfig\Config


    Double-click to modify its value: paste the full file path of the desired .dwt template.

  3. Restart ZWCAD for the change to take effect.
