How to use destacking without the Destacking library
In some cases it is more convenient to not use the Destacking library but to describe the destacking styles for each part directly in the Part list or Part library. To do this:-
- Set up Destacking information boxes for the Parts (Information box parameters)
- Add the full destacking information at the Part list (or Part library)
The information that would be in the Destacking library is placed instead in the information boxes at the part list.

The Destacking information boxes allow the destacking information to be set for each layer of the destacking arrangement.
Not all combinations of pallets and baseboards are feasible.
Notes
Using the Destacking library with Information boxes
In some situations it is useful to use both the Destacking library and the Destacking information boxes for describing the destacking information for a part.
For example, where most Part types are destacked on to Baseboards the Destacking library is usually the simplest method for setting up destacking styles and exceptional cases can be dealt with by overriding the Destacking library data using the Destacking Information boxes.
A typical case (as shown above) is where the Baseboard or Support layout is not 1 x 1 - information boxes are needed in this case as the Destacking library assumes a 1 x 1 layout (which is by far the most common) for Baseboards and Supports.
