I would like to be able to set default project dependency settings in project templates (e.g. consume buffer, maintain buffer, etc.). Right now, this setting automatically defaults to “consume buffer” in project templates and there’s no way to change it.
I did find a workaround where if you change this setting in a project and then convert that project to a project template, it will keep the “maintain buffer” option BUT only when a new project is created directly from the template. It does not work when a task is converted to a project using that template (it defaults back to “consume buffer”), which is our main use case.
Thanks @Phil_Seeman - I had looked high and low on the forum and I couldn’t find that other request - I think both would be very helpful! Even setting it on an organizational or team level would be huge!
Based on my recent feature requests related to Project Templates, I think it’s fair to say that “anything that you can change/set within a regular Project, should also be a setting within the Project Template”.
I’d like to be able to make projects from a project template, without having to go into the resulting project and make additional changes, that should have already been a configurable setting within the template itself.
I completely agree @FreshyJon! I’ve noticed the same thing with customizable tabs - I would love to be able to do that on a project template level, but it doesn’t look like that’s possible right now.
Do you know if there’s any open feedback request for this?
