Class Properties
Class Properties are special settings applied on a per-class basis. By
defining class properties it is possible to view objects in windows specific to
the object type (e.g. Design Object Terminals, Design Object Wires and Design
Object Nozzles) and make available relevant updating options for objects of a particular class.
Enabling Windows for Viewing Specific Objects
Each of the following six properties, if selected, enables the viewing of the
objects in specific windows as follows:
- Can have Terminals - If selected, objects of this class can be
viewed in the Design Object Terminals window.
- Can have Connections or Wires - If selected, objects of this
class can be viewed in the Design Object Wires window.
- Can have Mechanical Nozzles - If selected, objects of this
class can be viewed in the Design Object Nozzles window.
- Can be Nozzle Part - This is the only class property exclusive to design
parts. Use this property to relate a design part to a specific nozzle (e.g., a gasket to a
pump nozzle).
Update Object from Design Part Properties
The following class properties enable updates from a design part to be automatically
made on the connected object:
- Update Terminals from Part - enables all objects in the class to have their terminals updated
from connected design part's terminals. Used in conjunction with Can have
Terminals.
- Update Wires from Part - enables all objects in the class to have their
wires updated
from connected design part's wires. Used in conjunction with Can have
Connections or Wires.
