2.3.3.1.  Configuration

2.3.3.1.1. Tabbed page "Simple"
2.3.3.1.2. PARTsolutions pool path
2.3.3.1.3. Adjust templates
2.3.3.1.4. NoSection
2.3.3.1.5. CreateDerivated(is3dPart) or (is3dasm)
2.3.3.1.6. CreateIMates

The following table gives an overview of all keys and contains references to corresponding in-depth chapters. In addition, you can see from the table in which configuration files the corresponding features were configured in PARTsolutions V8.1.

Usually you make settings in the Category CAD integration -> Inventor. In special cases, if you want to use complex syntax, make changes in the Category Configuration files -> $CADENAS_SETUP -> ifadeskinv.cfg.
