Save a custom labeling skeleton template

To complete your labeling skeleton template (VST), ensure you have completed all of the following steps:

• Design a marker set
• Create a subject node and prepare a subject
• Capture and reconstruct the marker set
• Add parameters to a labeling skeleton template (optional step)
• Create the skeletal structure
• Assign marker and segment properties
• Optimize a custom labeling skeleton template

When you have completed all the above steps, you can save the completed labeling skeleton template.

To save the labeling skeleton template:

1. In the Subjects Resources tree, right-click the name of the subject you created (see Create a subject node and prepare a subject) and from the context menu select one of the following:
   • Save Labeling Skeleton As Template Enables you to save the template for future use.
     or
   • Save Labeling Skeleton As Template and Attach Enables you to save and use the template immediately in the current session.
2. In the dialog box, navigate to the Nexus ModelTemplates folder, by default: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Vicon\Nexus2.x\ModelTemplates, where your template (VST) will be automatically picked up for later use.
3. Give your template a generic name that describes the type or purpose of the template, for example LeftArmReachingExperiments (avoid giving templates a subject-specific name, such as JohnSmith), and click Save.

If you want to start using your template immediately, you can now add subject-specific measurements and calibrate the template for your particular subject. For information, see Prepare a subject in the Vicon Nexus User Guide.
