Defining Drawlist Members

The lower part of the Drawlist Management form contains the gadgets that you use to build up the Add and Remove lists owned by each Drawlist.

The usual principles apply; that is, you select items from the Reference List Members list and copy them into the Drawlist Members list by using the Add, Remove or Volume Defined buttons.
The Drawlist Members list shows all elements in both the Add List and the Remove list, the element names being qualified by ‘Add’ or ‘Remove’ to show their status.
Identifying Design Elements
The Reference List Members list can show either the Design DB elements or other existing Drawlists. The former allows you to pick design elements explicitly; the latter allows you to identify design elements by their presence in other Drawlists. Use the Design Members/Drawlists drop-down list to choose which list is to be displayed.
Specifying Design Elements within a 3D Limits Box
-
To add elements within a given design volume to the Drawlist, click the Volume Defined button.
All significant elements positioned partly or wholly within the current limits box will be added to the Drawlist.
If no limits box is currently defined, you will be presented with a Drawlist Limits form on which you can enter coordinates of two opposing corners of the required volume.
Deleting an Entry from the Drawlist Members List
-
To delete an entry from the Drawlist, highlight the relevant line in the Drawlist Members list.
-
Click the Delete Entry button.
The selected line may be either an Add entry or a Remove entry.
