Inherit – use this option if you want the product to retain the appearance defined by the 'Product page template' setting of its parent category.
[DEFAULT] – use this option if you want the product details to be presented using the default product details template.
Scheme name(s) – all the schemes listed in the Scheme Manager as 'Enabled' are listed in the drop-down box, you can choose any of them to customize the appearance of the product.

4. Click on the 'Update' button to save the changes.
