You can also create custom catalogs to:
- Group together frequently used components. A custom catalog may contain components from several different manufacturers.
- Rename standard components. The underlying geometry of the component and link to the manufacturer is unaffected; the component inherits any change to the manufacturer catalog component.
- Customize components with your own dimensions, order codes and names. These components can then be used in the Component Wizard.
To manage custom catalogs:
- Select Wizard tab > Mode panel > Toolmaker On/Off to run Toolmaker.
- Click Wizard tab > Modify Molds panel > Component Wizard.
- Click Manage custom catalogs to display the options.
- Use the options to:
- Locate an existing catalog.
- Create a new custom catalog.
Tip: Click
to close the Tree view options on the Component Wizard dialog. This will minimise scrolling.
