The Attributes tab contains settings for inserting information to the Cutting database fields. You can add text information to DXF/DWG files, which the software saves to the different Smart Production Cutting database fields. For example, you can add the geometry drawing name to the DXF/DWG file to automatically save the geometry to the database. You can also use the DXF/DWG file to insert information in the database.

Configuring the import set to use attributes requires knowledge about the Smart Production Cutting database structure. We recommend that you contact customer support for further information.

Selected Rule

Enables you to add new attributes.

Search tag

Specifies where the information to insert is located. Type the tag name in the text box. The import process uses this tag, and searches for it in the file to import. For example, if you type [D] in the Search tag box, the software searches for a text object inside the DXF/DWG file that starts with [D], and inserts the text after the tag in the defined database field.

Click the arrow beside the text box to display more options, as shown below.
