Management of objects
There is a Management tab in the dialog boxes for creating multiple objects. This includes an object manager which will be described in this section.
Depending on the object, it is possible that not all of the management functions described here are available.

Dialog box section Properties
Name
Shows the name of the object once it has been saved.
The name is specified on saving the object. The name is the unique object designation and is equivalent to a data base code. The name should in no way be confused with the designation. This does not need to be unique and can be saved in different languages.
Folders
Shows the folder structure when the object has been saved. The folder is specified on saving. Siehe Folder properties.
Designation
Defines a label for the current object.
With most objects the current label text is used as the designation. With some objects the designation must be defined by the user.
Item
Shows the item number of the current object once it has been saved. The item number is specified on saving.
Below the properties there are the following buttons:
Get ...
Opens the Dialog box Select objects, where you can load a saved object. Siehe Object selection.
Save ...
Opens the Dialog box Save, where you can save the current object. Siehe Saving objects.
Object <
Selects an object in the drawing. For this the dialog box is temporarily closed. The selected object is then marked or displayed in the dialog box.
As default
Saves the current settings as user defaults.
This button is not always available.
Remove default
Removes the user defaults and restores the system defaults. The button is inactive when no user defaults have been saved.
This button is not always available.
Reset
Restores the default settings (system or user defaults) in the dialog box or resets the dialog box to the original state.
If a dialog box is started for the first time in a drawing session, either the system defaults or the user defaults are displayed, provided they have been saved.
If a dialog box is started again during the drawing session, the last status is in each case displayed.
