Class Properties

Class Properties are special settings applied on a per-class basis. By defining class properties it is possible to view objects in windows specific to the object type (e.g. Design Object Terminals, Design Object Wires and Design Object Nozzles) and make available relevant updating options for objects of a particular class.

Enabling Windows for Viewing Specific Objects

Each of the following six properties, if selected, enables the viewing of the objects in specific windows as follows:

• Can have Terminals - If selected, objects of this class can be viewed in the Design Object Terminals window.
• Can have Connections or Wires -  If selected, objects of this class can be viewed in the Design Object Wires window.
• Can have Mechanical Nozzles - If selected, objects of this class can be viewed in the Design Object Nozzles window.
• Can be Nozzle Part - This is the only class property exclusive to design parts. Use this property to relate a design part to a specific nozzle (e.g., a gasket to a pump nozzle).

Update Object from Design Part Properties

The following class properties enable updates from a design part to be automatically made on the connected object:

• Update Terminals from Part - enables all objects in the class to have their terminals updated from connected design part's terminals. Used in conjunction with Can have Terminals.
• Update Wires from Part - enables all objects in the class to have their wires updated from connected design part's wires. Used in conjunction with Can have Connections or Wires.
