30.13.  GeoSearch: Load desired search template automatically

In PARTdataManager -> button Search templates -> subitem Manage search templates ... [166], you can save as many search templates as you like.

A special search template can be specified via configuration file as default for a Geometric Search started in the CAD system. This is then automatically loaded when calling a GeoSearch in the CAD system.

To define your desired template proceed as follows:

  1. Perform the desired GeoSearch.

  2. Click on the little black arrow in the button Search templates and in this way open the subitem Manage search templates ....

    -> The same-named dialog box opens.

  3. Click on the button Add current search.

    -> A new entry is created for the current search.

    In the column Description, enter a (meaningful) name.

  4. Open the configuration file in $CADENAS_USER/psolopt.cfg.

    In the section CadAssistant, in the key GEOSEARCHTEMPLATE, enter exactly this name.

  5. Start a GeoSearch from the CAD system.

    -> Now always the specified template is automatically loaded in PARTdataManager or Seamless.
