Add or edit segment properties

Segments contain a set of properties that provide a complete definition of the segment in the assembly. Segments do not exist in the context of a library and do not contain library-level properties. They contain only occurrence-level properties.

  1. Double-click the harness assembly containing the segment to edit.
  2. In the browser or graphics window, right-click a segment, and then select Harness Properties from the context menu.
  3. Click the Occurrence tab to set the needed properties related to the physical aspects of the segment.
  4. Click the Display tab to set the appearance, and determine whether the segment is displayed as rendered or centerline, or in the loom or segment appearance. You can also view and change the order of any assigned looms.
  5. Click the Wires/Cables tab to view wires and cables routed through the selected segment.
  6. Double-click any row to display the properties dialog box for that wire occurrence.
  7. Optionally, click the Virtual Parts tab to assign virtual parts to the segment.
  8. Optionally, click the Custom tab to add new properties to the segment.
  9. Click Apply to continue adding or modifying properties or OK to finish.
