Organize Structural Elements

While using the Structural Element tools, you can add or remove designpoints to/from a designpointset.

1. On the guide bar, change the first entity selector type to DesignPoints.
2. Select designpoints to manipulate.
3. Click the DesignPointSet selector then choose a destination set.
4. Select Add or Remove from the drop-down menu.
   • Add will add a reference to the selected designpoint entities in destination designpointset while not creating any duplicate (reference by ID).
   • Remove will remove references (if they exist) of selected designpoints from the selected set.

Similar types of organization actions are available from the Certification Browser directly via context menus

Duplicate DDP Set

This designpointset level menu results in another designpointset created with reference to exact same designpoints as in the source designpointset (same designpoint IDs, no duplication).

Methods assigned to source designpointset are not copied.

Cut/Copy/Paste

Cut and Copy are available at the designpoint level while Paste is available at designpointset level when preceded by a previous copy/cut.These actions will paste designpoints that were previous cut or copied from another designpoinset. This does not result in new designpoints created but a new reference inside target designpointset. The result is similar to the Add action within the Structural Element tools.

Remove

The result is similar to the Remove action within the Structural Element tools. If a designpoint is removed from its last reference count, then it will delete the designpoint from the database

Delete

Delete designpoints from the database. If performed from designpointset, it will delete all designpoints not referenced by other sets and always delete method entities referenced by the set.
