  • If you want to use the Pen for a template shape, you would need to create a Pen opening and then select the template shape for it in the Pen Properties screen.

Templates are specialized parametric shape generators created by Wizard.

Many of the templates have additional Properties that can be edited which can change the shape, curves and corners of the design as well as a wide assortment of Parameters.

The Template Library displays the different templates that are available for use.
