Part Properties (2-D)

2-D Part > Properties 

Use the functions contained in the Properties function group of the 2-D Part tab to process the attributes of 2-D parts.

The functions always refer to the active 2-D part.

Material for part

This function assigns a material to the active part.
     

Part scale

If you enter the new scale and a fixed point, the size of the representation changes. The fixed point marks the position of the part after the change of scale.

If you change the main scale of the drawing from 1:1 to 1:2, the part scale will be changed proportionally, i.e. a part scale of 1:5 will then change to 1:10.

For 2-D parts, the scale in the Properties tab of the ICN is represented as 1:n [1:m]. The scale shown in square brackets is the part scale, the other scale is the result from part scale and main scale of the drawing. If the main scale is, for example, 1:2, and the part scale is 1:3, then 1:1.5 [1:3] will be displayed. If the main scale and the part scale are identical, e.g. 1:2, the part will (in relation to the main scale) be displayed without size change.
