Published elements are part of the CNS classification, so it has to be installed mandatorily.
Published elements are geometric elements (connection points, coordinate system, sketch, plane), where additional information can be attached like placement information or meta information.
Placement information: Especially standard parts such as bolts, nuts, etc. are equipped with this information, so that they can be placed in the CAD very simple and quick via placement dialog. On this see Section 5.13.8, “ Classify standard parts for placement dialog ”.
When searching for a suited electrical part, advanced information like connection information in particular is needed. See Section 5.13.10, “Classify Electrical Parts ”.
In the piping classification the connection type can be defined, for example.
Respective working area is opened, when selecting a 3db file under Project selection.
Within the preview you can find different context menu commands:
Advantage of the above described working area is the direct relation to the respective geometric elements such as connection points, for example.
If the name of the elements to be classified is known, you can alternatively select the respective project and then edit under Edit project -> tabbed page General -> Classification -> Classification (CNS) / Attributes (CNS). On this see Section 5.13.5, “ Add projects to classification ”.
