4.5.5. How can I define the characteristic of the part?

Once selecting a part or an assembly , the Table view is opened (depending on portal possibly even directly the Variable view).

In the Table view you can specify the characteristic of part.

[Note] Note

In the Table view no value range fields are displayed.

Once you are in the Table view, you can generate the CAD model for the selected line (only makes sense if there are no value range fields, which have to be set).

  1. At initial call of part the default line determined by catalog manufacturer is selected (activated option button ). For the default line there is a preview available by default. For all other lines it has to be generated first.
