Restore Library-Level Properties
To restore a property value to its original library-level value, position the cursor
anywhere in the selected table row, right-click, and then select Restore.
In this exercise, you restore the library-level property value for the custom
Volt property with the value override.
Restore a library-level property value
1 With the Wire Properties dialog box still open, click the Volt row in the
custom property table to select it.
Notice that the library-level property name, and value appear in the
bottom left of the dialog box.
2 Right-click anywhere in the row, and then select Restore on the context
menu.
The wire library replaces the occurrence value with the library value.
3 Click OK.
Changing Wire and Cable Displays
Wires and cables can be displayed as either rendered or centerline. Centerline
display is the default and should be used for optimal performance while
creating and routing wires and cables.
If Rendered Display is selected, the harness object is drawn as a
three-dimensional shaded solid with the diameter as set in the library
definition, which is similar to the physical object appears. With centerline
display the objects are drawn as lines, making it easier to see and work on
existing model geometry.
