“Folders” Tab
This tab is used to define a list of additional folders for
searching files that could not be found in the standard
folders.
The file type to search for in the additional folders can be
selected from the list:
Customizing System
The [Add] button brings up a browser window for
selecting the desired folder on the disk. Select the
folder on the tree using the cursor. Upon confirming
the selection with the [OK] button, the browser
window closes and the name and path to the selected
folder will appear in the selected file type input box.
The [Remove] button allows deleting a folder selected
from the list of defined folders.
The [Up] and [Down] buttons move the selection
frame up and down the list of defined folders.
Example: suppose we open a drawing file with a fragment assembled in it, while the path to the fragment
has changed. In this case, a message will be displayed about an error opening the fragment file. The fragment
itself will not be displayed on the drawing. This error can be fixed by either changing the path to the
fragment, or using the described tab and defining an additional folder where the fragment file is located. In
that case, the system will be automatically searching for the fragment file in the additionally defined folder
as well, and the error opening the file will not occur.
Prototype Folder. This setting specifies the path to the folder whose content will be displayed in the
“Welcome” dialog box on the application startup and in the “FP: Create New Document Based on
Prototype” command dialog box (“File|New From Prototype…”).
Additional settings are provided in the 3D version of the system that define standard element libraries for
certain 3D commands, as follows:
Hole Folder (Library). This setting specifies the path to the folder of the standard hole fragment library
used in the command “Create Hole”.
Sheet Metal Features Folder (Library). This setting specifies the path to the folder of the forming sheet
metal feature fragment library used in the command “SMF: Create Sheet Metal Forming Feature”.
