Add a Layout part. This is a preliminary layout which can be edited in later phases of the mold creation process.
The Layout Part dialog is displayed:

You
can either create a new layout part, or browse using the open document
icon
, to add one of your own layout parts or select
one of the predefined layout parts supplied by Cimatron.
These predefined parts (inch. and mm.) are available under the following
folder: C:\Cimatron\CimatronE\Data\dat\Molddata\Layout-parts.
If you create a new layout part, set the units of measurement for the part.
Note: There will only be one recognized layout part per mold assembly.
