This component is located in a sheet and can be edited like a view. This is why we call this component a detail view. The 2D component can be instantiated several times each instance providing a component with a specific orientation position and scale. The detail view can be either in the same drawing as the CATDrawing of the corresponding instances or in a separate CATDrawing. What s a Component Catalog The catalog is a separate file which references the detail views enabling to group the components to classify them and to add information and attributes to these components. This allows overall management of the components. Moreover the catalog browser can be used to choose a component and instantiate it in a drawing document. You can synchronize external catalog components. In other words you may update a component or ditto that is external to the 2D. Note that associativity is kept. For this go to Edit- Link menu bar and select the Synchronize switch from the displayed dialog box. You can prevent manipulating a 2D component the whole 2D component . For this go to Tools - Options - Mechanical Design - Drafting - Geometry tab and de-activate the Allow Direct Manipulation option. General Concepts For Using Catalogs Creating a 2D component in a detail sheet You will find below a reminder on how to instantiate a component from a reference element that is internal to the document. http catia online driug_C2 1 of 4 10 19 2004 12 13 08 PM Before You Begin 1 reference component 2 instantiated component Saving a 2D Component in a Catalog You will find below how to instantiate a component from a reference element that is external to the document. http catia online driug_C2 2 of 4 10 19 2004 12 13 08 PM Before You Begin 1 local copy of reference component 2 instantiated components 3 .
