Click a tool catalog or collection in the catalog library to view it. For example, clicking a Corridor Modeling Catalogs collection opens a window with catalogs, such as the Generic Subassembly Catalog.
When you open a tool catalog, a cover page describing the catalog is displayed in the right pane. If no cover page is defined for a tool catalog, items contained in the tool catalog are displayed in the right pane. For information about specifying a cover page, see Editing Tool Catalog Properties.
To continue past the cover page to the contents of the tool catalog, click the catalog name in the left pane of the Content Browser window.
The contents of a tool catalog can be organized into categories. When a tool catalog is open in the right pane, any categories are listed in the left pane. For example, the Corridor Modeling catalog is organized into the categories shown in the previous illustration.
Categories can be subdivided into one or more levels. If subcategories exist, a list of subcategories appears when you move the pointer over the category name in the left pane.
Click a category or subcategory to open it. For example, clicking the Getting Started Subassembly Catalog opens a window containing a range of Basic subassemblies.
You can move your cursor over the assembly image to display options for inserting the assembly into the drawing or adding it to a tool palette.
You can modify the contents and properties of a tool catalog if you are authorized to do so, unless the catalog is read-only. Read-only tool catalogs are identified in the Content Browser title bar when you open the catalog.
A tool catalog category may contain more items than can fit on a page. If multiple pages are needed, navigation controls appear at the top and bottom of each page. You can specify the page to be displayed by clicking the page number or by clicking Next or Prev. (Note that these controls also appear at the bottom of the page.) You can also change the number of items that are displayed on a Content Browser page.
