Secondary Area

The secondary area of the Formboard section provides commands for managing individually the various steps of your formboard generation.

Harness Flattening Parameters
Sets the general harness flattening parameters before flattening a segment.
See General Parameters.
Extract
Duplicates 3D electrical content for harness flattening.
This command is only available in the flattened content tab.
See Extracting the Geometry.
Generate Layout
Flattens 3D harness parallel to the active plane.
This command is only available in the flattened content tab.
See Flattening Entirely.
Flatten Status
Lets you check the flatten status of branches and select some parts of the electrical geometry you do not want to be flattened.
See Flyout for Managing Flatten Status.
Export Electrical System
Exports electrical physical systems in KBL format.
See Exporting an Electrical Physical System in KBL.

Flyout for Managing Flatten Status

Flatten Status
Lets you check the flatten status of branches and select some parts of the electrical geometry you do not want to be flattened.
This command is only available in the flattened content tab.
See Preparing the Flattening Process.
Link Geometries
Links two electrical geometries geometrically and electrically after their extraction and flattening.
This command is only available in the flattened content tab.
See Linking Electrical Geometries.
