Grid

By default, all templates come with a 8x8px blue grid with a major red grid separator every 16x16px because it relies on a .5rem/1rem measures as reference.

Set as default

To set a template as default and start using it as soon as Inkscape is opened you have to:

Copy the template to ~/.config/inkscape/templates
Rename the template as "default.svg"

The default template will be opened in Inkscape every time you create a new document.
