1
00:00:00,390 --> 00:00:03,582
If you have a particular design
that you like working with and

2
00:00:03,582 --> 00:00:07,960
are consistently having to change
the colors or the layouts of your art

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:12,750
to something that you regularly use, it's
probably a good time to create a template.

4
00:00:13,770 --> 00:00:18,500
Let's tweak our gym network line
chart a bit to something I like.

5
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:24,590
So first of all, I am gonna change
the title here to Gym Network.

6
00:00:24,590 --> 00:00:29,370
And I want it to be bold and
I want it to be a little bit bigger.

7
00:00:29,370 --> 00:00:31,995
So lets do 20.

8
00:00:31,995 --> 00:00:36,854
And how about we make it, Black text.

9
00:00:40,494 --> 00:00:45,900
Okay, next lets make
the y-axis numbers larger.

10
00:00:45,900 --> 00:00:47,910
And let's also make those black.

11
00:00:47,910 --> 00:00:52,040
And let's make the x
axis numbers larger too.

12
00:00:55,965 --> 00:00:57,330
Let's just do the data series here.

13
00:01:00,109 --> 00:01:01,510
Let's make them bold.

14
00:01:01,510 --> 00:01:05,610
Okay, I also want to
change this line color.

15
00:01:05,610 --> 00:01:13,970
I'll make it black and
I'll make this one, A different color.

16
00:01:13,970 --> 00:01:17,370
How about one of these dark grays.

17
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,710
I'll leave that one gray.

18
00:01:19,710 --> 00:01:25,700
I'll make this one, But
I'm gonna make it a dotted line.

19
00:01:30,816 --> 00:01:37,550
And this orange one I will also make
black but with a compound style.

20
00:01:39,838 --> 00:01:41,670
And I'll leave that blue one there.

21
00:01:45,994 --> 00:01:47,100
And I'll just make this thick.

22
00:01:48,740 --> 00:01:50,310
So I've changed the styling quite a bit.

23
00:01:51,370 --> 00:01:54,090
And I know that I'm gonna use
this style repeatedly, so

24
00:01:54,090 --> 00:01:55,490
I'm gonna make a template out of it.

25
00:01:55,490 --> 00:01:56,640
So how do we do that?

26
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,440
Well, we right click the chart area,
and select, Save As Template.

27
00:02:03,340 --> 00:02:08,430
And I will call this DataVis, save.

28
00:02:08,430 --> 00:02:10,680
So now we have a template saved.

29
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,710
And if I go here to design and
change this back to what it was before,

30
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:25,790
I can then I can then select, Templates.

31
00:02:27,538 --> 00:02:28,600
And there it is.

32
00:02:29,690 --> 00:02:31,510
And look,
it automatically updates the styling.

33
00:02:32,830 --> 00:02:35,150
Templates can save you a lot of time.

34
00:02:35,150 --> 00:02:37,720
They can also be used to
provide a consistent look and

35
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,610
feel that matches your company branding.

36
00:02:40,610 --> 00:02:42,550
So how do you share a template?

37
00:02:42,550 --> 00:02:47,560
Well, when you created the template,
it stored a local file on your machine.

38
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,840
So all you need to do is find
that file in your machine.

39
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:55,300
Mine happens to be right here.

40
00:02:55,300 --> 00:02:57,130
Remember, we saved the DataVis template.

41
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,030
So you could attach this
file as part of your email.

42
00:03:02,030 --> 00:03:03,950
You can put it on a disk and
give it to a friend, but

43
00:03:03,950 --> 00:03:06,320
then they can add it to
their templates folder.

44
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:07,500
And there you go.

45
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:08,520
That's how you share a template.
