Modifying Fixture Layouts
Use this procedure to modify the components of fixture layouts with the Edit
Block in-place option. This method is more efficient than exploding the layout.
For example, if you drop a toilet stall into your drawing and then explode it,
the stall walls are wall objects, the door to the stall is a door object, and the
toilet is a multi-view block. When you use Edit Block in-place, the layout
remains a single piece of content. You can also drag the fixture layouts onto
a tool palette to create custom tools.
NOTE After you create your custom fixture layout, save the layout as Custom
Design Content for easy placement in future drawings.
For more information about fixture layout content, see Fixture Layouts in
DesignCenter on page 3873.
