The Restraint list defines the content of each drawing. The elements to be processed can be specified in the following ways:
-
By entering an explicit restraint name in the text box.
-
By entering the name of any element which has one or more restraints below it in the design hierarchy. All such restraints will be drawn.
-
By reference to an Draft Drawlist (IDLI) element which includes, either directly or by descent, one or more restraints.
-
In each case, you can navigate to the required element in the Design Explorer and then use the CE button to enter the element name into the text box.
-
Conversely, if you have typed a restraint name into the text box explicitly, you can click > Rest or > Drwg to make the Restraint or its associated Drawing the current element.
-
If you have specified an Draft Drawlist for the restraint definition, you can modify the list from within the application. To do so, click Modify list and use the Drawlist Management form to edit the list in the usual way.
