Create a template

File → New… opens the setup window for canvas size, frame rate and a blank template or recipe. To add a second template, open the Templates pane and choose New template… or Add existing template…. Studio creates a template set while retaining the first template's artwork. In a set, New Template Before/After opens the window with the set's output defaults, which can be overridden for the new template. Cancel keeps the current document and selection; replacing an existing document is confirmed when you create the new one.

File → Open Recent lists up to ten recently opened templates and template sets, newest first. It shares the welcome screen's history and includes local files and documents opened from a URL. Reopening reads the latest source and confirms replacement of the current document. Cancelling, denied access or a failed read keeps the current document. History belongs to this browser profile and Studio address; if the browser no longer permits access to a file, choose Open… again.

Composition presets offer 1920 × 1080 and 3840 × 2160, each at 50 or 59.94 fps. Use Custom for other dimensions, including portrait canvases, or frame rates. Saved templates keep their existing dimensions and timing when opened. Select Don’t show on startup to skip the welcome screen on future launches. You can turn it back on under File → Preferences → OGraf Studio → Workspace & windows. Saved recovery work continues to open normally, and File → New… still shows its setup.

The start screen​

New browser profiles start in the Essentials workspace with Layers, Properties and Timeline. Existing saved layouts are preserved, and the Window menu can open the other panes. The start screen offers blank canvas presets, recipes and file import. Recent files use browser file handles when available; reopening one may require renewed file permission. Choose Custom under Canvas size to enter a width and height, or under Frame rate to enter any positive rate. The broadcast frame-rate presets retain exact fractional NTSC values internally.
