Two methods are available for placing Content Center components: AutoDrop and manual placement. If you select AutoDrop on the toolbar, AutoDrop is the primary and manual placement is the alternate placement method. The primary method is available when you double-click a family in the Place from Content Center dialog box. Alternatively, you can select a family and click OK. To use the alternate placement method for the family, hold down the Alt key, and double-click a part family.
Tip: To use manual placement as the primary method, unselect AutoDrop on the toolbar.
To place a part manually by using the Table View:
- In the Table View, click row 95 to select the family member (a screw with M6 thread type, 30-mm nominal length).
- Click OK to place the selected part in the assembly. The manual placement method is automatically used because the family member to place is already determined.
- Right-click in the graphics window, and select Done to finish the command.
- Review the placed part in the assembly and in the browser.
