Create Component
Create a Drawing Specific Component. It is a macro, formed by elements selected from the drawing and the dimension table.
You can control the geometry of a drawing specific component by using the dimension table. When you save the drawing, the drawing specific component is retained in the drawing.
Before forming a drawing specific component from the elements, add all necessary elements and dimension constraint variable definitions to the geometry.
- On the tab, in the Symbols group, select Create Component.
- Select elements or a group in the drawing.
- Select Confirm.
Select the elements and then select the context-sensitive function Create Component.
Note:
- You can also create a drawing specific component from a geometry group.
- The dimension table data is removed if you explode the component by selecting Explode Group.
