Choosing the right template to start with is important because each template has unique tools to help you get started faster. These tools are located on a left panel we call a SmartPanel. In addition to important tools, this panel also contains the most relevant symbol libraries to help you get started.
To choose a template, browse the available categories located under the New Document section of the Dashboard.
To see the templates and examples in each category, click on the name of the category. For example, in the Floor Plans - Residential category, you'll see all the floor plan related templates and examples.
To open a template, just click on your selection.
