Reminder of the positions of the coordinate systems of the different sets that can still be modified in this window.
Define the plates on each set:
They are listed in the windows of each set. You can modify their positions with the management buttons.
You can add two types of plates: non standard plates that can be piloted by length, width and height (you can modify other pilot parameters depending on the plate you want) and standard plates from suppliers (managed by catalog). You can also create your own standard plates.
