CADWorx HVAC tab: HVAC Draw > Generic Attach

Command line: HGENERIC

Attaches information to any generic CAD object in the drawing. You can use the information later in bill of material extraction, labeling, and so forth. After manually constructing a component, use this routine to attach xdata information.

You cannot attach information to a CADWorx object or component.

To pinpoint the center of gravity locations use the Osnap commands. For example, to place information on a beam and have it correctly reflect the center of gravity, draw a centerline and pick MIDpoint, NEArest to the end of the centerline, or the exact location.

Generic Attach (Create/Edit) Dialog Box

Controls parameters for attaching information to generic CAD objects.

Long Annotation

Specifies the long annotation for the component, such as W6X25.

Tag

Specifies the tag to attach to the component.

Part number

Specifies the part number for the component, such as 12345.

Material

Specifies the material for the component, such as ASTM A-36.

Length

Specifies the length of the component. Any real number is valid.

Weight

Specifies the weight of the component. Any real number is valid.

BOM Mark Point

Shows the drawing coordinate location at which the information was attached.

Specify On-screen

Click the location in the model view to specify the bill of material mark point.

X

Specifies the X-location for the bill of material mark point. This value defaults to zero.

Y

Specifies the Y-location for the bill of material mark point. This value defaults to zero.

Z

Specifies the Z-location for the bill of material mark point. This value defaults to zero.

CG Location

Shows the center of gravity location at which the information was attached.

Specify On-screen

Click the location in the model view to specify the generic attach center of gravity point.

X

Specifies the X-location for the generic attach center of gravity location. This value defaults to zero.

Y

Specifies the Y-location for the generic attach center of gravity location. This value defaults to zero.

Z

Specifies the Z-location for the generic attach center of gravity location. This value defaults to zero.
