TechDraw Templates/ru

Overview
Every TechDraw Page is based on a Template object. The Template controls paper size and contains fixed text graphics and text, for example, a page frame or border.

The Template can also contain editable text fields for attributes like "Title", "Subtitle", "Author", "Date", "Scale", "Weight", "Drawing number", and "Sheet".

Templates are SVG files which can be created and modified outside of FreeCAD, with an application such as Inkscape.

Properties

 * : Paper width in mm.

 * : a) A pointer to the copy of the original Template file which is incorporated into this *.FCSTD file, or b) a filepath to a template accessible on the current machine. Use the file selection ellipsis (...) to change to a different template.
