Inserting Library Items

The 3D environment of some item types (namely assemblies and devices) allows for inserting other library items.

Place connectable object

This command allows to place connectors, connectable objects, and terminals.

Place part

This command allows to place parts, connector housings, and backshells.

Place leading part

This command allows to place leading parts, clips, and grommets.

Place non-graphical part

This command allows to place various items (item types) as objects without a 3D representation (the so-called "non graphical parts"). Such objects are then displayed in the 3D navigation panel only.

The main purpose of non-graphical parts is to be evaluated in the EPLAN Harness proD Studio reports.

Placing parts

  1. Click the appropriate Place <...> command on the toolbar.
  2. Select the desired item in the part navigator and confirm with [OK].
  3. Click on the desired location in the 3D working window (or determine the X, Y and Z coordinates in the command bar and confirm with [OK]).

Note:

Placing non-graphical parts does not require step 3.
