Edit a Section in a Composite Spec - Intergraph Smart Instrumentation - Help

Use this procedure to customize a section in Smart Instrumentation. You can save any page to the database, whether this is a section you open from an external file or a library section you modified.

1. To save the section as a .psr file, do the following:

   1. Open the section in the Section Editor.

   2. Select Actions > Save as File .

   3. On the Save As dialog, navigate to the required folder and type the target file name.

   4. Select OK to save the file.

2. Edit the page in InfoMaker - see PSR File Customization Using InfoMaker.

   Changing section coordinates (dimensions) might affect the appearance of the section in composite specs where it is used.

3. To overwrite the section in Smart Instrumentation, do the following:

   1. Open a spec section in the Section Editor.

   2. Select Actions > Save as Page.

   3. On the Save as Section dialog, do one of the following:

      • To create a new section, select New. On the dialog that opens, type a unique name and an optional description, and then select OK.

      • To overwrite an existing section, highlight the section you want to replace on the Section column and then select OK. When prompted to confirm overwriting the existing section, select Yes.

      

      • If the section you are overwriting is used in an existing composite spec, you will receive a warning regarding the possible effect on existing composite specs and prompting you to re-confirm overwriting the section.

      • If you modified section coordinates, verify that the modified section appears as it should in composite spec(s).
