Working with files in Compass 3 D
The purpose of the module: The development work with files of documents and examination of the foundations of a Compass 3 D.
1. Working with files of documents in Compass 3 D
In KOMPAS-3D is used by default the following file extensions.
Files documents
*. a3d - Files assemblies
*. m3d - Part files
*. cdw - Drawing files
*. frw - Files fragments
*. kdw - Files are text documents
*. srw - Specification file
Creating, opening and saving documents
To create a new document, you can use the Create button, drawing, Fragment, text document, Specification, Detail, Building on the start page, or click the Create button on the Standard toolbar, or call the command File - New ....
This displays a dialog pops up a new document.
On the Templates tab you can choose a template for the new document.
If using a template is not required, select the type of document tab new documents.
Each newly created document is displayed in a new window.
To download to edit a previously created document, click Open on the Standard toolbar or invoke the command File - Open ....
In the new screen standard file open dialog, select the type of document, and then specify the desired file name.
In that case, if you recently edited the document, and then closed it, re-opening can be done faster way. At the bottom of the File menu displays a list of the last nine documents, which worked with.
To save the document to disk, click Save on the Standard toolbar or invoke the command File - Save.
When you save a document written in a file name and extension, which were installed at the very first time you save the document.
If the document is stored on disk for the first time, an action similar to the recording under another name.
Sometimes you want to record the document after editing it, leaving unchanged the old version file. In this case, the preservation of the document under a different name and elsewhere on the disk.
Invoke the command File - Save as ....
Sometimes you need to save all documents that are open for work. To do this, invoke the command File - Save All.
2. Basics Compass 3 D
Units
In KOMPAS-3D uses the metric system of measures.
Distances between points on the drawings and fragments are calculated and displayed in millimeters. The user always works with the realities of governmental size (scale 1:1).
The numerical parameters of the texts (the height of the font, pitch lines, the value of the tab, etc.) are set and displayed in millimeters.
Interface Program
KOMPAS-3D - and a multi-MDI system. It can be simultaneously open windows of all types of documents KOMPAS-3D - models, drawings, fragments, text documents and specifications.
Commands are invoked from the pages of the Main menu, context menu or using the buttons on the toolbar.
When working with any type of document on screen displays main menu and several toolbars: Standard, View, Current Status, Compact.
Fig. 1. Standard toolbar and the View
In C Normal panel has buttons: New, Open, Save, etc.
In Control Panel Type: Zoom In, Zoom Out, Move, Zoom in / Zoom Out, Show all.
The composition of menus and toolbars depend on the type of the active document. Teams that control the display of toolbars are in the View menu - Toolbars.
To enter the settings and set the properties of objects at their creation and editing is the Properties panel.
Fig. 2. Properties panel for the object segment
Reading the current action or the active element of the interface by pressing
Composition Compact panel depends on the active document.
Fig. 3. Compact instrument panel for drawing
Revitalization toolbars made by means of buttons switch.
When developing a drawing or a fragment of a standard compact panel includes a button switch. The panel consists of several pages.
Fig. 4. Dashboard Legend
To switch between pages, use the buttons above (left) dashboard.
On the geometry of the panel buttons are grouped by types of objects, input which they cause (for example, a group of buttons to enter the points, a group of buttons to enter the circles, etc.).
Geometry on the toolbar is visible only one button from the group. Buttons can cause an extended panel of commands, marked with small black triangle in the lower right corner.
On Panel and sizes are buttons command to dimension (linear, angular, etc.) and process notation (roughness, base, etc.).
COMPASS-3 D provides the user with all the necessary tools for editing the drawing.
Using the properties and the current state
Properties panel to manage the process of the command.
Panel can be located in its secured position at the bottom.
For example, the panel is how to perform editing of the segment.
Fig. 5. Properties panel segment
The panel can be placed in a dialog box. The structure of the Properties pane, enter:
- Title
- A special control panel
- Tabs
- Field selection tab.
Enable or disable the Properties pane is the command View - Toolbars - Properties panel.
Panel current state - the panel that displays the parameters of the current state of the active document.
Fig. 6. Panel current state
A set of fields and buttons, panels of this state depends on whether the document is active.
To enable display it on the screen is the command View - Toolbars - current status.
Coordinate systems
When working in COMPASS-3 D uses the Cartesian coordinate system right. Getting the absolute coordinate system of the drawing is always in the lower left point of the outer frame format.
For the convenience of the user can create a document in an arbitrary number of local systems of coordinates (LSC), and quickly switch between them.
Creating a local SC
To create the first local coordinate system in the document, follow these steps.
1. Call, click Insert - Local UK or click Local UK Current status on the panel.
2. After calling the command appears on the screen image of the axes of local coordinate system, which can move the cursor. Fix the beginning of LSC at the desired point, and then rotate it to the desired angle and lock the final position. You can enter the appropriate values, the coordinates of the binding and angle LSC in the fields on the property bar.
By default, LSC proposed to name SC 1, instead of which you can enter another, more appropriate, name.
3. To complete the work with the local SC, click Cancel command on a special control panel, or press the button again Local UK panel current status.
To manage the LSC, created in the document, invoke the command Insert - Local UK or click Local UK Current status on the panel.
In the Properties panel will appear controls that allow you to change the settings for LSC in the document.
To do this, click its name in the list, , And then set the appropriate values, the coordinates of the beginning, the angle of inclination of the axes and title. To create the LSC, click New Local UK .
If you need to install any LSC as the current one, select its name from the list and click Use Current Local UK . Next to the name of the LSC will be "checked" . To LSC was not present, click Use Current Local UK again. "Tick" next to its name will disappear. To remove the LSC, highlight it and click Delete .
To complete the work with the local SC, click Cancel command on a special control panel.
System Configuration
Configuring the system KOMPAS-3D includes three groups of settings.
Group
Description
System Settings
Settings made on the System tab common settings dialog box.
Settings for new / current documents
Settings made on the new tab / current documents overall dialog settings.
Desktop Settings window
Settings that determine the appearance of the main window
System Settings allows you to change the look of the screen COMPASS-3 D, as well as various system parameters.
Overall setup dialog appears on the screen after the call command Tools - Options ...
If the command is invoked in the main window, the system was not open any document, the configuration dialog contains two tabs - System, and new documents.
If the documents were discovered, the dialog is also tab the current document and the current window.
To change any of the settings, select the name of this group from the list on the left side of the dialog and then select the appropriate settings in the right side of the dialog.
Parameters of the current window you can customize the look of the screen display the auxiliary grid, as well as displaying scroll bars.
Fig. 7. Types and parameters of the grid
Setting the current or new documents
Some of the settings that determine the new or the current document:
- Parameters of the first or new sheets - Format.
Allows you to select a standard format for a drawing or a text document or to appoint a suitable size sheet manually.
