A project template goes further than a track template: it can be used to create an entire project file, based upon the structure and settings of the template file. For example, tracks and their parameters (name, color, pan setting, FX chain etc.), project settings (including media settings) are saved with a project template, along with the screen layout, which views are open, how they are sized, whether they are docked, and so on. Delete unwanted media items from a file before saving it as a project template, otherwise every time the template is used to create a new file, these will be inserted.
