Standards

Create a New Standard

Creating a new ASL standard will display a form requesting both the Name and Description of the Standard which updates the Design Explorer with a new Application Data Area (APPDAR). There is no limit to the number of APPDAR that an APPLDW can own so the user the flexibility to create any number of Standards.

Delete the Selected Standard

Deleting the Standard will delete the engineering criteria associated with the assembly data and where the assembly data has been instanced in the 3D model the rule checking engine and the ability to intelligently update the ASL assembly will be lost. The instances of the ASL assemblies all store and use references against the standard (ASLStandard), secondary standard (ASLSbStandard) and assembly reference (AssTmpReference) with which they are defined so deleting the standards or assemblies will delete these references.

Copy the Selected Standard

Copying existing standards provides a quick and efficient method of creating new standards and simply editing the properties in the form control grid.
