If the part list drawing source is MPR(X) and one or more parts are added to a part list without an associated MPR(X) file the part template is used to generate a drawing for these parts.

Notes

 

The part template must be setup so that three variables define the dimensions of the part using the nesting system parameters:-

 

Use set variables for MPR(X) dimensions

Dimension names (MPR(X))

 

The template must contain the same variable names  (for length, width, thickness) as the system parameters (e.g. L, B, D)

 

Example

 

The part template is an MPR file.
