Can I save and re-use custom properties for future graphML files?

Question

I use extensive custom properties within yED on graphs, nodes, and edges, and would like to save the time of having to init the custom properties for each new graphML file.  Possible to export and re-load?  If no, can this be moved to a feature request?

Answer 1

Start with an empty document, add some custom properties, save said document, and always open the saved GraphML to be used as template for new graphs. Since you already have documents with custom properties, you can also create the template by opening one of your existing GraphML file, removing all elements from the diagram, and saving the now empty document as your template.
