Create Sheet Library

Creates a Sheet Library (SHLB) at the specified location in the hierarchy.

The Library (LIBY) must be selected in the hierarchy to make it the CE.

It is recommended that you give the SHLB a name that makes its contents obvious to users.

Click OK to display the Sheet Library window or Cancel to discard any changes and close the Create SHLB window.

A sheet library (SHLB) is effectively a drawing sheet template that aligns with the backing sheets and overlays that it owns.

To set the sheet library as the working element, click CE.

You must specify the SHLB dimensions, either explicitly in the Width and Height fields, or by selecting a standard sheet size from the drop-down list. The size is cascaded down to BACK and OVER levels.

If required, from the Ruleset Reference list, select a ruleset that defines the way in which design graphics on backing sheets and overlays are to be drawn.

Note:
These can be set or overridden at sheet level if required.

To define attributes at SHLB level, such that they are cascaded down to BACK or OVER levels, click Attributes and change the settings on the Sheet Library Attributes window. Refer to Sheet Library Attributes for further information.

Click Apply to create the sheet library or Reset to revert to the values applied when the Sheet Library window was opened.

Click Cancel to discard any changes and close the Sheet Library window.
