we have 2 licenses on the same login. Will layers one user adds be synced with UDP data? Thanks, Bill

Hi Bill,

If the layer(s) make up the UDP symbol then yes, it/they will be stored in the symbol and added to the drawing, if they don't already exist, when that symbol is dragged into the drawing.

How about global drawing layers?

Hi Bill,

If you want new default layers in a drawing type, or any other setting for that matter, then set your drawing up as you want it and choose File | Save as Template.

In the dialog that appears click on Add then name the Template and click OK, then OK.

This creates a User Template that you'll see in the Drawings view.  User Templates are synched along with UDPs so the User Template will appear on all the computers you sign into after the next synch.

When you start a new drawing based on the User Template it will contain the new layers and any other default settings you have defined.
