Provides options for selecting the drawing properties and settings to be imported from a style .xml file. When you open the dialog box, Isogen Configuration displays a hierarchical list of the style categories, style groups, associated option groups, and all respective isometric drawing properties and current settings.

You use the All AText, and All Reports check boxes to display Alternative Text (AText) settings and report definitions that are also present in the style .xml file. The Current check box is selected by default, which automatically displays all of the properties and settings in the selected style .xml file.

Option

Displays a hierarchical list of the style properties and settings in the selected style .xml file. At the root level is the style category (1). Next, is the style group (2). Under the style group are groupings of options (3), each of which contains related isometric drawing properties and corresponding property values, if set (4). Use the and buttons to expand and collapse the hierarchy so that you can view the file contents as needed.

Value

Displays the current setting for a drawing property. If the setting is undefined, no value displays. In the example, Output is set to kgs and Linear Denominator is set to m. The Support Additional Material property is undefined.

When the property is a table or report, the dialog box displays <Table> or <Report Definition>, as appropriate. In the example, the report definition for the Bending file and the Material Control file are part of the export list.

The Current, All AText, and All Reports check boxes listed below allow you to control which contents of the selected style .xml file display in the dialog box.

Current

Contains all the properties and settings available in the selected style .xml file. The software excludes AText settings and reports that cannot be imported individually. This is the default setting.

All AText

Contains all the AText settings available in the selected style .xml file. You cannot import an individual AText setting. You must import the entire group of AText settings.

All Reports

Contains all the report definitions available in the selected style .xml file.

Remove

Excludes the selected property, AText setting, or report definition from being imported.

AText and some reports can be imported only as a group. Removing one item from the group results in the entire group being excluded from import.

Cancel

Closes the dialog box without importing any isometric drawing style data.

OK

Imports the selected data and settings into the active isometric drawing style. Imported style settings are available immediately in the software. However, to permanently update the isometric style file with the new settings, you must click before exiting Isogen Configuration.
