    • Component icons

      Can someone tell me what determines how the icons/thumbnails look for new components?
      i am trying to standardize how they look for future components and they all seem to be taken from different views or perspectives

    • Delete default material library?

      Is there a way to delete the default library since i never use it
      It would save me from having to change directories to my own library all the time

    • Problem calculating area of a scaled object

      This is a tricky one
      I use an extension called Estimator to help me calculate the area and cost of surfaces in my drawings.
      To use the extension to its fullest, objects must be saved as components. I have created a dynamic component of a shower stall, when i query the estimator extension to calculate the square footage of the surfaces it uses the original non scaled dimensions, any scaling i do to the dynamic component gets ignored. so my question is, does any one know how to delete the history associated with a scaled object, i notice that if you right click on a scaled group or component there is an option to reset scale., can i make the modified size default in some way so the estimating extension will hopefully capture the correct surface square footage.
      Thanks, i realize this is really specific

    • RE: Add Glue to existing Component

      case closed

      i realized i was not reloading the component into the scene so the attributes were not assigned

    • RE: Add Glue to existing Component

      Can you be explicit as to where the model tab or edit tab is
      I cant find them, i do see entity info tab but there are no options there for glue

    • Add Glue to existing Component

      Is there a way to add "Glue" to an existing component
      I do NOT want to collapse the component first as it has complicated Estimating language and formulas attached to it that i will loose if I collapse the component
      Thanks

    • RE: Can you automate scale info using autotext?

      Thanks
      It seems like such a simple thing to integrate
      Surprised it is not doable

    • Can you automate scale info using autotext?

      I just discovered autotext and i would love to automate the scale info of each image using autotext.
      Is there a way to reference the scale value from the model tab?
      Thanks allot
