Build New Component - Step 2
Note: If you are building a component from an existing cell, the Cells list will be enabled allowing you to specify which cell properties the new component will inherit from. A graphical image of the active cell is displayed in the Preview window as you scroll through the list.
- Select the Cell Library to be used for the component from the drop down list. (i.e. Equipment.cel for equipment components, Instrument.cel for instruments etc.)
A preview of the component is displayed in the Preview window.
- By default, the Cell Name for the component is the same as the class name defined in Step 1. This can be changed if desired.
- Click the Origin button and pick a point on the component to serve as that component's insertion point. Note: If no Origin point is defined, it will default to the center of the component.Note: When creating a component from an existing cell, the Origin option is not displayed as the new component will inherit the origin point from the selected cell.
- Press Next to continue, or Back to return to the previous step.
