Create new member files when placing iParts or iAssemblies

If one of the iPart or iAssembly members does not meet the needs for current use, you can create a row in the Place Standard iPart dialog box.

  1. On the ribbon, click Assemble tab Component panel Place .
  2. In the Open dialog box, browse to locate the appropriate iPart or iAssembly factory and click Open. If Vault is installed and you open a file in the vault, you can use an alternate method. Click Open from Vault located under Quick Launch for immediate access to your vaulted files.
  3. In the Place Standard iPart dialog box, click the Table Tab.
  4. A New row is added at the top of the table. Click in the Member column of the row and enter a new name. When you enter a value in a cell, other table members are filtered out so that only values that match that value are visible.
  5. In each column, enter values to differentiate the new member from other members and then click New Row.
  6. Select the member you want to place and click in the graphics window.
  7. Continue to place instances of the member or select another member. Continue to place members, right-click, and select Done. Click Cancel to close the dialog box.
