Building Units

The Unit Assistant provides tools for building a new compatible unit or macro unit. Building a unit involves the following steps:

  1. Selecting the unit in the Units view and opening it in the Unit Assistant window.
  2. Choosing components from the Units Catalog and adding them to the active unit, either with a drag-and-drop operation or a cut-and-paste operation.

To build public units, you must be a member of a user group that has this capability. A private unit can be built by any user who owns the unit.

Before you can build a new unit, it must exist in the Units folder. For more information, see Creating New Units.
