If you do series of shows that are similar or identical to each other you can save quite a bit of work by using Show Templates. Any show can be saved as a template. A new show can then be created from that template. When a show is created from a template, all the configuration of the show is generated automatically; you start out immediately working with your entries. To create a show template, open the show that you want to duplicate and select Save Show as Template from the Tools menu. A standard file save dialog will be displayed... | |||||

Just type in a name for your template that you will recognize later and then click Save. That's all there is to it!
