The object becomes a template if you check the "Template" setting. The object's icon then changes, and you can then drag a copy off the object to create another object from it which has exactly the same settings as the template object. You should only enable this setting if you want to use this object exclusively for creating other objects from it.
&os2; has a number of standard template objects in the &link_tempsfdr; which allow you to create new objects for the most commonly used object types. However, it is not a requirement that all templates reside in this "Templates" folder; templates can reside anywhere on the system.
If the "Template" setting is unchecked, the object behaves as usual.
Note that the "Template" check box will be disabled for certain types of objects that cannot be duplicated.
