Define key points

Menu access : Assembly | Define component | Define key points

Description :

Allows you to define key points / coordinate systems of a template component ( for insertion positioning).

General philosophy :

  1. Select the key-point or coordinate system to insert

  2. Name the key-point

  3. Give a more detailed description of the driver and confirm with the ENTER key.

Specific point(s) :

You can extract element from the selected elements.

 The order of creation of key points is important because they will be asked in the same order at the moment of the insertion.

Key points and key coordinate systems appear in the symbolic tree in the KEY-POINTS / KEY-COORDINATE SYSTEMS SET.

Key Coordinate system have an advantage over key points because they completely position the component.

At the moment of the insertion you can use several methods to position the component.
