Templates are not just used for setting drawing and part standards. I have found a great use working with commonly used parts in a design, in this case I never know the actual length of my given part and it may change throughout my design creation. My video shows the creation of this part template and working with it inside my design. In this case I could have taken advantage of frame generator but at times that functionality does have limitations. Remember any part you choose to use as a template must be saved in a template folder.
Check out my video of how to do this.
