These kinds of parts are taken into consideration
during automatic positioning. Check all kinds of parts (standard shapes,
special shapes, poly-plates, bolts, miscellaneous) that have to be equipped
with a position number in one process.
If you have added parts list data to any graphical
elements, these are included via ‘Miscellaneous’.
|
Connections
|
Can also be taken into consideration at positioning
and get a so-called ID. Naming of the links (connections) is created with the
options below.
|
Only with Names
|
Connections are only positioned, if they have been
labeled from the Connections dialog or from the
"Loglinks" of the connecting shape's properties.
|
Enable selection criteria
|
Opens the
Settings for part comparison dialog, used
to create the position flag with predefined parameters. You can check the
properties relevant for differentiation:
The dialog specifies the criteria for the detection of
identical parts by means of parts properties like name, note, etc.
|
1st Sorting List
|
Here, you determine the order of positioning.
The selected parts are sorted in the indicated
order according to the type of component part (shapes, plates, etc.). Put the
type of part that has to be positioned first to the top, the next type to the
second position and so on. In the example dialog of positioning, all shapes are
seized first, then all special shapes, and finally the concrete parts. If there
are several parts of the same type, these will be sorted according to the
settings for the 2nd criterion. Change the order of criteria by
using the arrow keys.
|
2nd Sorting
|
List Here, you specify a subordinate order. Within
each part type, sorted according to the 1st criterion, the parts
will be sorted according to the order specified here.
If you have e.g. seized more than one shape - with
the settings of the example dialog - these shapes then are sorted according to
the length first; if the length is identical, they are sorted according to the
weight, and so on. Then, the special shapes again are sorted in the same way,
etc.
|
Sort Flats like Plates
|
When checked, the flats (which actually are ‘shapes’
as type of part) are treated like any plates at positioning. Therefore, they
are displayed together with any plates when a parts list is sorted according to
the 1st criterion.
|
Reverse
|
When checked, applies the sort order reversed.
