A start part template file is simply a file with settings you and your company want to have in EVERY file. They can be named anything you want. To make them work, you need to set a config.pro option to pull in the template file when you create a new part file. You can have template start files for many different file types ion Pro/E. the most common ones are for standard parts, sheetmetal parts and assmeblies.


Common things in a template file are: coordinate system, datum planes and maybe some parameters for your drawing formats. We had complex relations in ours as we were modifying data as it came from windchill into a parameter format that we wanted for the associated drawing.
