The occurrence of the performance is called for editing by double-clicking the LMB. The dialogue allows you to create in the performance of new entries or copy them from the permanent data.

The dialog box consists of the sections: "Variable data" and "Permanent data".

In the section "Permanent data" are the occurrences of the specification. When you click on the "+" button, the entries are copied into the execution (in the section "Variable data").

In the section "Variable data" are occurrences of performance. Clicking on the "+" button will create an empty entry.

An empty entry can be edited by changing its Type, Designation, Name and Quantity.

To remove an entry from a performance, press the "-" button opposite the entry.

Grouped by GOST - one standard parts will be grouped general heading (for example, "nut OST 26-2041-96").

Skip the line after group - add a blank line after grouped according to GOST positions.

  The number of skipped lines between sections - number of blank lines between sections of the specification.

Migrate to the next line - includes transfer to the next line with a long name products. If this option is disabled, the item name will be entered into a table cell.

Skip first and last lines - pass includes the first and last row of the table in the template specification.

Output at the line - each position specifications will be displayed with a space in one line.

Skip the line at break numbering - if the positions do not follow the order, after nonconsecutive lines added a line under a missing item. If the drop-down list shows a miss "single line" - that regardless of the number of missing items will be added only one empty line. If the drop-down list select a miss "depending on the gap," the number of rows to skip will depend on the size of the gap.

Fundamental rules

When you point to elements of attachment parts for nanoCAD Mechanica 23 recognizes the size of parts mounting connections without additional indication of its components.

When making a specification of the assembly drawing mechanism can be set dynamically related to the title block of assembly component external DWG-file.

All changes in the linked drawing die subassembly (rooms, mass node) will automatically be reflected in the general specification.

Notation of the position of the standard item

When selecting compounds for a fastening nanoCAD Mechanica23 Auto detects the typical preset sizes of fastening elements with no additional input. The construction indicators-fit , degree of hardness and the cover for standard parts should be set individually, depending on the specific conditions of the assembly operation.

Additional lables (Precision , modelling procedure, thread tolerance , degree of hardness etc , must be entered among the truss symbols. In the ballon editor (or in the part list editor), double click the entry field to enter additional information on the modelling procedure of a fastening.

Adding Construction Indicators to Standard Parts

When you point to elements of attachment parts for nanoCAD Mechanica 23 recognizes the size of parts mounting connections without additional indication of its components. Design features (landing, strength class, coating) standard parts, depending on the specific conditions of the site must be specified separately.

Additional notation (class, performance, tolerance thread, class, etc.) must be entered instead of a hash sign ("#").

Editor position (or BOM editor), double-click on an editable cell to enter additional information about the execution of the fastener.

When selecting components for a fastening, nanoCAD Mechanica auto-detects the typical preset sizes of fastening elements with no additional input. The construction indicators - fit, degree of hardness and the cover for standard parts should be set individually, depending on the specific conditions of the assembly operations.

Additional labels (precision, modelling procedure, thread tolerance, degree of hardness etc.) must be entered among the truss symbols. In the ballon editor (or in the part list editor), double-click the entry field to enter additional information on the modelling procedure of a fastening.

Creating performance and item positions , before inserting into the drawing

To create an additional position for an item which has already been identified on the drawing, use the CAD drafting DRAWING SPECIFICATIONS 87"Add position/perfomance" option. Click on this icon and the Select position record dialog will open. In it, the earlier insertion positions are displayed.

Note:

In the Select position record dialog, only those positions that have been identified by number are displayed.

If the specification editor settings mean that a group view of the document is shown, the Select position record dialog contains two parts. The top part of the window displays the list defore the inserted positions, and the bottom part of the window - the list of position perfomances. If a line is chosen in the top part of a window, the new perfomance of the selected line will be added in the position editor. If a line is chosen in the bottom part of a window, the selected perfomance will be added.
