# Using a Template

Templates capture the entire Style tab configuration—colours, typography, even per-chart-type tweaks. They make it easy to share design language across your team. One template contains styles for all chart types.

### Templates

Access the Templates via the plugin menu and manage it:

* **List view** — shows every template.
* **Reorder** — click Make default; the first template becomes the default.
* **Delete** — removes a template. You’ll be asked to confirm.
* **Copy** — duplicate a template to experiment safely.

### Collaboration tips

* Use consistent naming conventions (e.g. `Dept - Use Case`).
