Start with out profiles! How? Template dosen't work.

Here is an example of a template saved without updating the style. Take a look at how the style icon looks in the style browser and also try to add a scene.

I downloaded and used your file as a template. I see the two arrows in a circle, I do not see the warning dialogue box when I add a scene.

You'll only get the warning box if you've changed the style in some way from the previous scene. Or changed it away from the default settings before adding the first scene. Changing the style includes switching from Perspective to Parallel Projection of 2-point Perspective as well as Face Style and the settings you can make in the Styles browser.

No matter what I try it does not give me that warning. Can some one post a step by step guide?

Dave R

GO to Window>Preferences>General and make sure the bottom check box is ticked. It enables SU to warn you of changes to the Style.

This is a registry setting and not part of the template.

Interesting, that warning is a default setting, I think. So it would have had to be turned off at some point.

Dear All,

This thread has given me an idea for a new thread. I shall call it Templates for Newbies, and I will post the first one with some useful textures for mechanical parts.

Regards,
Bob

Ta da.... and now the penny drops as to why I do not get the warning. I just knew it had to be a tick box that stops annoying messages. It is a habit of mine to disable any warning messages when possible. I have been bitten once or twice instead of annoyed thousands.

Mind Hazza that if you use different styles in the same model, this is not an "annoying message" but a pretty useful dialog box where you can set different things.
