Groups (folders)

A <Group> (folder) is an element of the geometrical model. It is aimed for grouping of geometrical objects which are similar by destination or by any other affinity. The folders are very useful to make adaptive projects. It is possible to define once the folders as geometrical parameters of operations. Next it is enough to change the folders contents to tune up the project for the modified geometry. In this case a part, workpiece, fixtures and a job assignment of operations will be updated automatically when the associated folders content is changed.

Note: When importing, groups can be automatically placed in special folders, if you add one of the following keys to the name:

  • sc_f_ - the group will be moved to the <Fixtures> folder;

  • sc_w_ - the group will be moved to the <Workpiece> folder;.
