  Re: question/problem regarding mlcad
 
Go to Settings -> General and on the Rendering tab tick the "Draw to selected part only" box - I think Michael changed the default setting in the newer releases. Dan (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Automatic Part Selection Query (Part 2)
 
Hi Micheal, I am wondering if it would be possible to use an unique identifier for each part belonging to a specific funcionality in the model.
