Truss Structure Dialog Box
Select a truss to be added or edit the truss library in the dialog box. You can only edit customer-specific libraries in the custom/complibs/trusses folder.
Dialog Box Options
- Libraries

Select a library and a selection group from the list in the top left-hand corner of the dialog box. You can search for a library by activating the list box and pressing Ctrl+F. Enter the character string to be searched for in the text box. If you wish to collapse or expand all libraries, right-click to open the context-sensitive menu and select Expand all or Collapse all.
