In the Project selection dialog area you can see a directory tree similar to that in MS Explorer.

All functions in the Project selection area can be reached via the context menu commands on each level.

The following image shows the opened norm folder (Industry Standards), including the subfolders and project files.

Directory tree with projects and project files

Directory tree with projects and project files

At project level, different files, such as *.pra (2-D preview), *.3db/3gb (geometry), *.tac (attribute table) and *.bmp (part bitmap) are summarized.

[Note] Note
  • The displayed symbol in the directory tree, depends on the Project type [21] (for example: bearings).

  • Depending on the selected project type, the associated tabbed pages may be assembled differently in the Edit project area.



[21] More information about project types can be found under Section 5.9.2.1, “Menu item General ”.
