RE: add or modify the door handle
Marc Thomas
Additional graphic components can be added to existing parametric doors (or copies of existing doors) using Parametric Cell Studio. Alternatively if the door sizes are fixed Compound Cells can be used, these are easier to modify for users who are not…

RE: add or create new equipment with parameters
Marc Thomas
Your existing 3D model could be turned into a Compound Cell. When creating a Compound Cell 2D symbology can be added to provide the appropriate level of 2D graphics for the drawing output. Conmpound Cells are not parametric, a range of sizes would need…
