7 Click ➤ Manage ➤ Projects.
The Projects dialog box displays the project configuration information.
8 On the Project pane, ensure that the Tube & Pipe Tutorial Files project
is active and use the Configure Content Center Libraries tool ➤ Add
Library tool to attach CustomLibrary to the Content Center.
For detailed instructions, see
Set Up Projects For Exercises on page 11 in
Chapter 1.
9 Save the changes for the project and close the Projects dialog box.
10 On the ribbon, click Tools tab ➤ Content Center panel ➤ Editor and
update the libraries in the Content Center as needed.
11 Optionally, you can create subcategories to publish parts.
For detailed instructions, refer to the Help.
In the exercises that follow, you publish the authored parts to the default
category that the system automatically matches. You do not need to create
subcategories in this step.
Publish Authored Parts
When publishing authored parts, you must map the part parameters to the
category parameters. The information you provide to define the part sets the
structure for its location in Content Center, provides a base for the part file
name, and makes the part attributes available for future queries.
In the exercises that follow, you use the Publish Part tool to add authored
pipe, 45-degree elbow, and 90-degree elbow iParts to CustomLibrary that you
created in the previous exercise.
NOTE If you need to use published parts to define tube and pipe styles, you must
specify the Standards Organization and Standard family properties during
publishing. They are the key style criteria to filter out library parts on the Tube &
Pipe Styles dialog box.
Pipe iPart
In this exercise, you publish the authored pipe iPart to CustomLibrary.
