Hi All, This is a basic question regarding template use which I can't find an answer for in the docs/Wiki. Normally when I'd like to create a html document from a template I'll be somewhere deep in the project structure and the action I'd like to take is:- - right-click on a directory - start a "create new file from template" dialogue - navigate in the dialogue to a template and select it - give file new name - carry on editing new file However Quanta seems to want me to :- - switch to template view - navigate to the template I want - right-click on the template - select "New document based on this" - bring up the file save dialogue which is based from the project root - navigate in that file save dialogue to the place I was already at in the project view - save the file with the new name - switch back to project view - carry on editing new file This is so counter-intuitive and disturbing to work flow that I feel like I'm missing something really basic somewhere! It's actually quicker to temporarily open a similar file in project view and copy the contents into a new file than it is to use a template, which can't be right. Can anyone give me a clue (or a pointer to the relevant place in the docs) to achieve what I want? Cheers, Mike
