Creating/Editing/Deleting Templates

Templates in Genira allow you to save preferences for specific model features so you can quickly reuse them for future models.

📋 Template Features

Each template can include the following settings:

• Attachments

Components that connect the upper and lower models. Only added if both an upper and a lower model are part of the case.

• Text

  Text is added to the base of the model(s) unless pillars are added — in that case, text is added to the pillars instead.

  Limitations:

  • Maximum 18 characters. Longer text is shortened, e.g.:

    213235153213978974525235 → 21323515 .. 74525235

  • Only Numeric, English and supported special English characters (â, ê, î, ô, û) are allowed.
  • Text style can be Embossed or Engraved.

• Solid/Hollow Model

  Indicates whether the base is solid or hollow.

Your organisation’s Templates can be managed only by a user with an Admin or Owner role.
