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
- Type STARTUP in the command line and set its value to 1
- Type FILEDIA and ensure its value is 1
- Now, when we use the New command, the New Drawing dialog box will appear.
- Switch to the Use a Template File tab and select the desired template file.
Method II: Specify the default template
- Press Win+R to open the Run window, and enter regedit to open the Registry Editor.
- 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.
- Restart ZWCAD for the change to take effect.
