11.3.6.1.1 Creating a Global Template Option Group

Global template option groups are defined at the theme-level and are available for all components of a given type.

When developers create a template option group, they can specify a template option preset at the template-level. For example, suppose you have a button template that has the template options Large and Small. If you define Small as the preset, then any new button referencing the template would automatically have the template option Small applied to it when is it created. Template options that are part of a group are optional unless defined at the template-level.
