Catalog Explorer

By selecting the Catalog Explorer tab, the user can navigate through the GPART user defined hierarchy of the catalogue. In case the desired GPART can be identified already in the explorer, it is possible to right click and choose the Select command to assign the catalogue reference (SPREF) to the selected item(s) in the drawing. There is also a possibility to define and use filters to be applied to the search. When the Find button is clicked, the search result will be displayed in the result list pane to the right.

In case default filters for shapes have been specified in Diagrams Options or in the Default Catalogue Search Filter (refer to Step 5: Default Catalogue Search Filter), the "== Use default filter from item ==" option will have to be selected for these to take effect. When a shape associated with a default filter is selected, and the "== Use default filter from item ==" is applied, as soon as the Find button is clicked, the associated filter will automatically be applied.
