Templates: one template for one screen?

Answered Adam Skobo ● ago

Hello.
I don't get the idea of the templates.
Can I use multiple templates on one screen?
E.g. I have 2 screens, which have a common layout (template used).
They also have 2 common areas, but in different places. So I want to define that area once and insert it into two screens.
Is it possible? Does templates work like '1 template = 1 screen'. If so, it's a very poor way to share common content amongst screens/projects.

Is there any good tutorial about how to use templates effectively? (I've found only 1.5min video in advanced tutorials section)

Hi Adam,

You can only use one template per screen. You may find a master or the combination of a master and a template more effective. You can learn about masters here: https://www.justinmind.com/support/how-to-apply-global-changes-to-your-interactive-prototypes-with-masters/

Best,

Danielle

Big thanks for the answer: masters+templates are the solution.

Hi,

Can I copy Screens from other Prototype project to another Prototype

Yes, go to File > Export > Screen > and select the screens you'd like to export. In the other prototype, go to File > Import > Screens and choose the screen file you exported.
