|
Symbol Builder AESYMBUILDER |
Converts existing symbols or creates new, custom components on the fly. It works nicely for quickly building power supplies, filters, drives, controllers, and other custom devices or for converting existing non-AutoCAD Electrical toolset symbols to make them “AutoCAD Electrical toolset smart.” Schematic symbols created or converted using the Symbol Builder are fully compatible with AutoCAD Electrical toolset, break wires upon insertion, and appear in the various BOM, component, and wire connection reports. |
|
Icon Menu Wizard AEMENUWIZ |
Launches the Icon Menu Wizard to easily modify or expand an icon menu, or replace an existing icon menu with your own custom menu. You can change the default icon menu using the Project Properties dialog box. The default icon menu can also be redefined in “wd.env.” |
|
Panel Configuration AEPANELCONFIG |
Sets panel footprint drawing defaults such as text sizes and layer assignments. Configuration settings are saved as attribute values on a non-visible block named WD_PNLM (that inserts at 0,0). If your current drawing does not have this block present when any AutoCAD Electrical toolset panel layout command is invoked, AutoCAD Electrical toolset pauses and asks you for permission to insert this block. |
|
Rename Panel Layers AERENAMEPANLELLAYER |
Renames panel-related layers and updates panel drawing settings. The Panel Layer Rename utility makes it easy to rename layers one by one, or multiple layers at once by using the Find/Replace method. In addition to renaming the layer, this also updates the AutoCAD Electrical toolset layer assignment information carried on the drawing's WD_M block. For example, if DEMO-WIRES is currently assigned as an AutoCAD Electrical toolset wire layer, and you rename it using this utility, the new layer name is substituted for DEMO-WIRES in the AutoCAD Electrical toolset wire layer name list. |
|
Update Footprint Layers AEFPLAYERS |
Updates selected footprint layer assignments to match panel drawing settings layer assignments. |
|
Make Xdata Visible AESHOWXDATA |
Converts any piece of non-visible extended entity data (Xdata) into a visible attribute tied directly to the footprint block. |
|
Footprint Database File Editor AEFOOTPRINTDB |
Edits the catalog number and footprint block name lookup file. The footprint lookup database links a manufacturer's catalog part numbers to appropriate footprint block .dwg files. This information is in a multitable Access database file (footprint_lookup.mdb). |
