Template as stationery pad?

I guess you are referring to the checkbook on the "Get Info" window of a Project File in the Finder.

My understanding is that this is an OSX feature that must e supported by the app, and because the Logic Templates have that stationary functionality already built into it, Logic doesn't need that feature. Therefore, grayed out.

Hope that helps

Was Logic Pro X ever supported in OSX 10.6 (has it been that long already)?

Having the "Save as" dialog open immediately is just a cosmetic thing. The functionality is still the same either way: "You cannot overwrite a Template file (stationary pad), only save as".

Actually, Logic is even more smarter if you look closely:

• WHen you open a Template, Logic loads the Project and immediately saves it as a new Project called "Untitled" in the ~/Music/Logic directory
• You can work on that Project without saving, even record audio, and Logic keeps on Autosaving that Project so when it crashes, you won't lose anything
• When you hit the "Save" command, Logic will not overwrite that "Untitled" Project, it will prompt the Save Dialog and renames the Untitled Project to the new name you entered.

Hope that helps
