Mechanical Browser and Structure Catalog Icon Reference (AutoCAD Mechanical Toolset)

Icons for standard parts

Each standard part has a unique icon to identify it. The table below shows one such icon and how it changes as the state of the standard part changes. In the mechanical browser, a tooltip displays the details of the standard part.
