With the desired graph window active, right click on the window title bar to select Save Template As... or go to menu File: Save Template As... to open Utilities\File:template_saveas dialog. Check Mark as Cloneable Template checkbox and select a data structure matching criteria from Match Column by drop-down list, and click OK button to save the graph as a cloneable template.

After that you can clone a graph from this cloneable template with new data of same data structure. To do so, highlight all the data to be plotted, and go to menu Plot: My Templates and further select the saved cloneable template, indicated by a sheep icon in front to distinguish from an ordinary graph template, to make a graph with exactly same customizations as template.

You can also further select Template Library to preview the template in the dialog and determine which template to be used for plotting.
