Organization of the Design Reference Manual

The Design Reference Manual has three parts:

• Part 1 (this volume) describes general Design commands, which are used, for example, for setting up the display, and querying and navigating around the Design database. It also describes how to use the command syntax graphs, which are used to show all the options available for each command.

• Part 2, Creating the Model, describes the commands for creating database elements and setting their attributes.

• Part 3, Utilities, describes the Design Utilities for data consistency checking and clash detection, and for exporting Design data to programs such as Review.
