You can run configured Auto Create Components constraints using various ribbon actions.
Prerequisites
You have configured your rules and constraints and applied them to the required design. See also “Rules and Constraints” in the Capital Design Tools Common Functions User Guide.
The required design diagram is open.
To run the constraints on specific bundles / insulations, select the required objects on the diagram or in the Harness Design browser.
To run the constraints on all bundles / insulations, do not select any objects.
Procedure
Click Automate > Rules ribbon action.Figure 31: Auto Create Actions
To run all the configured Auto Create Component constraints, select Place All Components (or use the keyboard shortcut Shift+Ctrl+K). Alternatively, to run them for a specific object, select the required individual place action.
Results
Objects are created in accordance with the configuration of each constraint run.
If you have specified the required project preference (see “Auto Create Component Constraints Overview”), all auto created objects are created with this property set to True.
The Output Window displays feedback from the auto creation process.
