Exploding Symbols

In the library's 2D window, a dxf / dwg file (symbol) can be imported. Such a file can be converted into individual objects by means of the Explode symbol command. Exploding a symbol allows for the modification of its individual elements. Once the file is exploded, a group with individual elements and subgroups with individual elements such as lines, circles, polylines, texts, arcs, etc. is created. The group has the same name as the exploded file. The individual objects can be modified and removed, and the main group and its individual objects and subgroups can be regrouped and ungrouped as desired.

  1. While in a 2D library window, select the desired dxf / dwg file.
  2. Select the Tools > Explode symbol menu items.

    A group with the same name as the dxf / dwg file is created.

    The file is broken up into individual elements and subgroups of individual elements.
