When you start Inspiration or choose New on the File menu,
Inspiration opens a new document that is based on the default template.
When Inspiration comes from the factory, the default template is the Basic template.

The Basic template is a general-purpose template for any type of document.
You can make any Inspiration template (Default_Filename. IST ) the default template.

For example, if you want Inspiration to open in Outline View, rather than Diagram View, you can select any Inspiration outline template, or you can create your own outline template, and then select that template as the default template.

To select a new default template:
1 On the Utility menu, choose Default Settings .

2 Choose Select , and then click Next .

3 Open the folder that contains the template you want to make your new default template.
Inspiration templates are commonly stored in the Inspiration Templates folder inside the Inspiration 7.5 folder.

4 Select the template you want to be the default template, and then click Open .
A new untitled document opens based on the default template you selected.
All new documents will be based on the selected template.

The Basic template remains in the Templates folder in case you want to use it as the default template in the future.
