Automatic Generation of Profile Sketches

Sketches of profiles can be generated automatically when executing the Profile Cutting Interface or Profile Interface. The sketches are ordered by setting the keyword PSKETCH in the restriction file for profiles to YES. Refer to The Restriction File for further information.

Profile sketches are stored in the PADD data base pointing out by SBH_PSKETCH_DWG and SBH_PSKETCH_DWG_PADD. The logical name SBH_PSKETCH_DWG should point to it self and for the SBH_PSKETCH_DWG_PADD pointing out where these drawings are stored in PADD. See the drafting documentation for setting up the department and registry field for the logical name SBH_PSKETCH_DWG_PADD reference.

If the logical name SBH_PSKETCH_DWG_PADD is not assigned the software will try to stored the drawings in PADD where the standard drawings are stored (SB_PDB_PADD).

Names of profile sketches are automatically generated. See Automatic Naming of Production Sketches.

The customization of the profile sketches is described below.
