Usage
All numeric values should be entered in raw, unformatted, form. Numeric values that are not "raw" may create an "expression error". Raw values will be automatically formatted by the template.

An "expression error" may also occur when any coordinate parameter has a value, but one or more coordinate parameters are blank or invalid.

Basic blank templates are presented, ready to cut and paste. See the next section for a copy of the template with all parameters. See the table below for a full description of each parameter.
