Miscellaneous Features

Templates

The netWorks application provides a template feature to facilitate the replication of models. A template is a clone or copy of an existing model that has been placed in the equipment palette. You can drag-and-drop any model in the drawing panel onto the equipment palette and then use that palette item just as you would any other item on the palette. If the template is a compound equipment model, you might want to change the icon associated with the model since all compound equipment models default to the same icon -

- and templates are displayed in the palette using their associated icon.

You can save or restore templates to or from SAS data sets using the Save and Load options on the palette pull-down menu. Templates provide an alternative to equipment browsers for extending your equipment model database.
