Multi-bodies in PathFinder


When more than one design body exists in a part or sheet metal file, PathFinder displays additional collectors. You use these collectors to manage design bodies. The main collector is named Design Bodies. All solid design bodies reside in this collector. When you change the design body type to construction, a Construction Bodies collector displays. You can turn the display on or off for any design or construction body.
