Access
To place subtype entities of the current application area which have not yet been designed, select the Subtype entities option in the Place submenu, from the Edit menu of the CDM.
Lists
Subtype entities
List of subtype entities of the current application area which have not yet been placed on the CDM.
A filter located above the list can be used to limit the subtype entities displayed.
Extended-selection list
Buttons
Place (validation)
This button places on the CDM design the subtype entities selected in the list, in turn.
The name of the subtype entity being placed is displayed in the box. Just click the desired location on the screen to place the corresponding subtype entity.
Design can also be performed with the corresponding creation tool of the palette.
The possible links with other objects already designed are automatically traced.
As soon as the subtype entity has been placed, it disappears from the list. The process goes on for each subtype entity selected. When all have been placed, the dialog box is closed, provided that no subtype entity remains in the list; otherwise, it remains open for further placing.
Cancel
This button stops placing subtype entities and closes the dialog box.
It can be activated at any moment, even during the placing process.
Keyboard shortcut: Esc.
Note: Several boxes for placing objects can be opened simultaneously (but only one per object type). These boxes can be minimized for the user to work in better conditions and for the placement to be easier. Placing always applies to the object type of the last box on which the Place button was activated.
