Applying Detail Component Properties to Linework from the

5 In the Select Component dialog box, select the component whose
properties you want to assign to the linework, and click Select

The linework can now be keynoted just as if it were a component
inserted directly from the Detail Component Manager.

different detail component databases. A hierarchical tree view and a filter
feature make it easy to locate individual components within a database. Once
you find the component you need, you can insert it into a drawing, or you
can drag and drop it onto a tool palette for repeated use. Note that the five
buttons arranged vertically in the middle of the dialog box are unavailable
unless you have edit privileges for the selected database. For more information,
see Creating and Modifying Detail Component Databases on page 3515.

â– Right-click any detail component insertion tool on a tool palette in the
workspace, and then click Detail Component Manager.
