The templates specified in are always used when you create new documents directly from the
Novice page of the New SOLIDWORKS Document
dialog box or from the Welcome dialog
box.
Previously, if you created multiple
templates, then depending on the template names and folder locations, those templates
might have been used instead of those specified in Default
Templates. You can still use alternate templates by clicking
Advanced in the New SOLIDWORKS Document
dialog box or the Welcome dialog box.
