Add module

Parent Previous Next

This command adds a new module to the current macro.

The number of modules that a macro can contain is indefinite.

As you already know the primary use for a module is to add geometrical rules and for the organization: - which element depends on which element -

Beside this functionality there are still other uses for modules, namely adding bolts and profiles.

There are 3 types of modules:

The ordinary module contains only geometrical rules

The bolts module contains geometrical rules and can also contain bolt patterns. The intention is that the bolt pattern determines the placement of several bolts. For more explanation: see the command Bolts pattern.

The profile module contains geometrical rules and can also contain profiles that are based on a base line. To add a profile to the module is only possible using the Place profile dialog box. The correct orientation of the profile is modifiable in the Revise macro dialog box, in the tab of this profile module.
