Depending on the identification selected, HiCAD automatically searches for the standard processings within a rectangle and displays their data in a table.

Drag a rectangle containing the standard processings and define a reference point.

The coordinates of the standard processings output in the table refer to this point.

If you have selected the Table, Individually function, you can explicitly identify a standard processing.

Finally, define the position of the table in the drawing.

HiCAD places the table containing the data of the found standard processings at the specified position and annotates the standard processings accordingly.

Whenever the file is closed, the table is updated.
