Indeed there is! Studio obtains the list of available templates by calling
the ENUMERATEAPPLICATIONTEMPLATES HTTP operation. If you're curious to see
the response, you can submit the request from the "Web Applications" section
of the web tier test pages. 

The information returned comes from the template info files stored in the
www/fusion/templates/mapguide folder in the web tier installation. In this
folder you'll see XML files called slate.xml, aqua.xml, maroon.xml,
limegold.xml and turquoiseyellow.xml. These correspond to the 5 standard
templates you can see in Studio. 

To get another template to show up in Studio, all you need to do is drop
your own XML template info file into this folder. 

The content of the Slate template info file is shown below. For your own
template, you should: 

1) Pick a unique <Name> value 
2) Set the LocationUrl to point to the main HTML page in your template 
3) Set the <Description> - This shows up in a tooltip when you hover over
the template in Studio 
4) Create a 126x96 preview image for your template, and set its URL in the
PreviewImageUrl field. 
5) Define <Panel> entries for each of the IDs that you want to be able to
assign components to in Studio - if you've based your custom template on one
of the existing MG templates, you may not need to change the existing
entries. 

You shouldn't need to re-start anything to get the template to show up in
Studio, just right-click in the list of existing templates and choose
"Refresh". If you've got everything set up correctly, your new template
should show up in the list. Let me know if you run into any problems. 

Chris.
