1.10.1.3.1.20. Classify connection points on assembly level

If an assembly is used, the connection point to be used has to be made known to it.

Up to and including V11 an assembly's part had to be classified accordingly. As of V12 the respective connection point can be made available on assembly level and be classified directly there.

Proceed as follows:

  1. Select the assembly table project (*asmtab.prj) and click the context menu command Open with PARTdesigner [Open with PARTdesigner].

    -> The assembly configuration is opened.

    The figure shows the connection point intended for the placement.

  4. Save the configuration.

  5. Select the corresponding template file (*.asmtpl.prj) and open the Classification tab page and then the 3D view subpage.

    (In the case of assemblies no 3D content is shown.)

    Select connection point [Choose connection point] (for assembly)

    Select connection point [Choose connection point] (for assembly)

  6. Click on the Select connection point [Choose connection point] button.
