A manufacturing sketch view style uses S3DMfgSketch.RuleSet, which provides a list of source actions. Each source draws specific types of items and applies drawing rules to the items based on conditions allowed in the source. Using the Tools > Define View Style command in the Drawings and Reports task, you specify the source/condition combination, queries, view area properties, labels, and add-on rulesets you want to use for your drawing view style.

S3DMfgSketch.RuleSet

This rule set is used for all profile sketch drawings of members. The rule set and the source/condition definitions are defined on the Action tab of the Edit Ruleset View Style dialog box. For more information, see Actions Tab (Edit Ruleset View Style Dialog Box).

Source (Actions tab)

  • Basic - Displays the manufacturing schema in a readable format.

Custom Test (Actions tab)

The options available for Custom are taken from the manufacturing schema provided in [Reference Data Folder]\SharedContent\Xml\StructManufacturing\MfgXMLSchema.xsd. These options are parameters and properties for the selected source selected on the Select Manufacturing Source Property dialog box. The top pane displays parameters for the selected manufacturing source. The bottom pane displays properties for a selected parameter.
