Templates bookmark contains a tree with the list of all templates of 3D-view of objects chosen from the list in the top part of the bookmark of p3d-library of three-dimensional images.

In the list as the active only those templates are displayed which correspond to the metrics chosen for editing: one-point, 2 point, many points, many points closed, text metric.
