To Work With Subassembly Code Set Styles

Use code set styles to control the visual appearance of a code set (link, point, and shape codes). You can create specific styles to use for the different aspects of an assembly or corridor. Since subassemblies can be displayed in a number of objects, code set styles are applicable to those objects as well. The following types of objects use code set styles:

• Subassemblies
• Assemblies
• Corridors
• Section views

An individual subassembly typically contains just a few points, links and shapes. Therefore, most subassemblies typically contain a relatively simple code list. Since an assembly manages a group of subassemblies, the code list for an assembly is comparatively larger. Furthermore, since a corridor can have multiple assemblies applied within it, the code list becomes larger and complex. The same holds true for the section views.

To copy, edit, or create a code set style

1. In Toolspace, on the Settings tab, expand the General collection, the Multipurpose Styles collection, then the Code Set Styles collection, and right-click an existing style.
2. Click Copy or Edit.
3. In the Code Set Style dialog box, click the Information tab and enter a new name and description for the code set style.
4. Click the Codes tab to define styles for each link, point (marker), or shape code associated with this code set.
5. Click Apply.

To add a code to a code set style

1. In Toolspace, on the Settings tab, expand the General collection, the Multipurpose Styles collection, then the Code Set Styles collection, and right-click an existing style.
2. Click either Copy or Edit.
3. In the Code Set Style dialog box, click the Codes tab.
4. Right-click a code collection (one of Link, Point, or Shape) in the Name column. Click Add.
5. In the Pick Style dialog box, select a style for the code.
6. In the Name column, click NEW CODE, enter the name of the code you want to add, and press Enter.
7. Click Apply.

To import codes to a code set style

1. In Toolspace, on the Settings tab, expand the General collection, the Multipurpose Styles collection, then the Code Set Styles collection, and right-click an existing style.
2. Click Copy or Edit.
3. In the Code Set Style dialog box, click the Codes tab.
4. Click Import Codes.
5. In the drawing, click on a subassembly, assembly, or corridor object, and press Enter. The codes are automatically displayed in the Codes tab list.
6. Click Apply.

To edit a corridor’s code set style

This procedure describes how to change the code set style assigned to a corridor.

1. Do one of the following:
   • In Toolspace, on the Prospector tab, expand the Corridors collection, and right-click an existing corridor. Click Properties, and then click the Codes tab.
   • In the ribbon, click ModifyCorridor. In the Modify Corridor panel, click the down arrow, select Edit Code Set Styles, then select a corridor.
   • In the drawing, right-click a corridor, and select Properties. On the Corridor Properties dialog box, click the Codes tab.
2. Click the drop-down arrow next to the Code Set Style, and select a new code set style.
3. Click Apply.
