Questions you may have
Should I choose a scene, basic element or designer?
Choose a complete scene to reuse a composition and change its artwork, a basic element to study one mechanism, or the matching designer to import artwork, define contours or configure a structure. Each detail page describes its type and starting pose.
What do the 90° and 180° template labels mean?
They describe the template's default page-opening position, not an angle inside the paper pattern. A 90° parallel structure may lie down when the pages open flat. Check closed and intermediate states in the workbench as well.
Is a template detail page a ready-to-print file?
Detail pages introduce editable structures or designers. Open the matching project, check dimensions, layout and export access, then use its available export options. Separate tutorial practice files state their format and printing requirements in the lesson.
