When you launch SmartProperties on a drawing, the " Show Properties of: " field displays the name of the document to which the properties will be applied and the configuration option selected.

The data entry form is defined in the SmartProperties settings. By default, there is a different data entry form for each document type.

Apply properties to welded parts:

For a mechanically welded component or sheet metal part, SmartProperties can be used to apply properties to welded parts.

To do this, simply select the item in the tree. The item is then added to the " Show properties of: " selection field, and the input screen for welded parts appears.


  


Use the pushpin () to :

  • that SmartProperties remains visible after the properties are applied
  • to be able to modify the properties of multiple welded parts without having to restart SmartProperties each time.

You can also select multiple welded part items by holding down the " Ctrl " key on your keyboard. The list of selected items will then appear in the " Show properties of: " selection area.

To select all welded part items at once, simply click " List of Welded Parts " in the tree. When you do this, all items will be moved to the " Show Properties of: " selection area.


 


Enter the multi-select entry for welded parts in the " General Properties " section.

Once you have entered this information, use the X to close the utility.

To return to the part's properties, simply select it by right-clicking in the tree or in the 3D graphics window, then select " Properties."
