Additional project settings<br />

77 On the Settings menu, there are several additional commands that control the project<br />

environment. Although these settings can be saved within a template, you should consider each<br />

carefully before applying changes to a template.<br />

For example, you can save rendered scene settings to a template. However, you may only want<br />

to add generically named settings that would be applicable to most projects. In such a case, you<br />

must decide if the time investment is offset later by the reduction in repetitive work.<br />

Each of these areas is covered later in this lesson or in other tutorials. Use the table below as a<br />

checklist, and make modifications in each area as necessary. Links to associated tutorials are<br />

provided. You can find additional information in Help. Each command is available on the<br />

Settings menu.<br />

Considerations<br />

If necessary, you can add project (and shared)<br />

parameters to a template. This could be useful<br />

for things such as title blocks, and framing tags.<br />

Create and modify the view templates to control<br />
