Compartment and Access

The Compartment and Access heading under Equipment and Systems has two tabs.


The Placement tab determines the step value used in the Define Offsets dialog box. The dialog box displays during the part placement function.

Enter a value in the Offset Step field. This is the step by which values will increase or decrease in the Define Offsets dialog box.

The Openings tab allows you to specify whether or not you want an opening to update automatically when you move the object associated with the opening.  For example, if you move a door on a compartment wall, and that door has an opening associated with it, the opening is automatically moved to the door's new location. Select the Auto Update checkbox to activate this option.

Note that you cannot save documents modified this way unless you have permission to make changes to the wall containing the opening.
