Using Templates

---

When you draw with templates, the first bond drawn determines the position of the template in a document window. All remaining bonds are drawn counterclockwise. The most nearly vertical bond on the far-left atom is drawn first, from top to bottom. If there are two equivalent bonds, the atoms that are at a lower position are used to draw the first bond.

Drawing direction of template structures

Templates are automatically scaled to the document settings of the current document in the active window. For more information, see "Autoscaling".

After a template is drawn in a document window, the structures or objects can be manipulated by standard drawing and editing methods.
