Duplicating and tagging templates
Projects grow quickly. These two habits keep the template list easy to navigate.
Duplicating a template
From the template list, pick Duplicate on any template. A copy is created with the same design area, bindings and animations but a new name.
Duplicate when:
- You need a variant (home-colors vs away-colors, short vs long name).
- You want to experiment without touching the on-air version.
- You are building a family of similar graphics (lower third for a player, a coach, a substitute — all share the layout).
The copy is fully independent; edits to one do not propagate to the other.
Tags
Tags are short labels attached to a template. The list view filters by tag.
Pick a small, consistent vocabulary and stick to it. Good examples:
- By placement:
lower-third,fullscreen,bug,strap. - By content:
player,team,score,clock. - By status:
draft,on-air,archive.
Avoid one-off tags — they clutter the filter without helping anyone find anything.
Archiving
The system does not have a soft-delete. Use an archive tag (or a naming convention like OLD — ) if you want to keep a template around without cluttering the main list.
