Geometric Library

The "Geometric Library" located in the "Tools" section of the Sheet Metal Module Interface is a library specifically for user-defined entities like specialized holes, arcs, shapes, lines, etc. If users spend a lot of time on a design and would like to save sections of it to use in another design, they can simply select the items from the display area and save them to this Geometric Library. From there, the items can be altered and re-entered into another "Plate/Sheet Metal" design.

Available Items

*To place items or entities into the "Available Items:" list, users first have to select the "Create Item:" button under the "Tools:" tab and select the items or entities from the design in the display area. Once they are selected, the user must select the "Complete:" button, click within the display area once more and a window will appear prompting the user to name the item(s) and provide any necessary notes that should be applied to the item(s). When this step is complete, the item(s) will be saved to the "Available Items:" list until the user chooses to delete it.
