    Export Catalog

      Product(s): Promis.e, Bentley Substation
      Version(s): through 08.11.13.73
      Environment: N/A
      Area: Component Management
      Subarea: Catalog Manager

    Background

    The Export Catalog tool is used to export a selection of symbols, or macros, or title blocks from a catalog, or to export an entire catalog, for the purpose of archiving or distributing the items to another user.

    Exporting a catalog results in a single archive file with a .CTLG extension.  This file can be restored using Import Catalog.

    To select the Export Catalog tool

    • Select a catalog in Catalog Manager then click the Export Catalog button.

    • Right-click the name of a catalog in Catalog Manager and select "Export Catalog". This will export the entire catalog.

    • Select one or multiple catalog items in the right-hand pane of Catalog Manager, then right-click the selection to chose Export Catalog. This will export only the selected items.

    To export multiple individual items:

    1. Drill into the catalog in the tree on the left side of Catalog Manager.

    2. Select the Symbols, Macros, TitleBlocks, or Families group.

    3. In the right-hand pane, select the items to be exported.  Use the CTRL and SHIFT keys along with the mouse as with standard Windows applications.  CTRL+A to "select all" also works.

    4. Right-click the selection and choose Export Catalog.

    When the Export Catalog dialog opens, click the [...] button in the Export Path field.  Browse to the destination folder, then type the desired name of the file in the File name field.  Click Save.
