FAQ

Is the Project Settings Template available after the project has been created?

No, project settings templates are available to be used only at the point of project creation.

Do changes to the Project Settings Template propagate to existing projects?

No, projects that are created using a Project Settings Template inherit the settings at that point in time, and are not live-updated by future changes to the Project Settings Template.
