Library tab

The Library tab and Teamcenter Library tabs are members of the docking window tab set in Draft. It displays Draft documents you can place as symbols, and model files that you can drag onto the sheet to create drawing views. You can also double-click a file displayed on the Library tab to open that file in QY CAD.

Note:

When no document is selected, you can use the commands on the shortcut menu to change how the file and folder list is displayed. You can use the Insert Symbol As shortcut menu to specify how you want to place an object selected on the Library tab into an open draft document.

When a document is selected, you can use the commands on the shortcut menu to copy, delete, or rename a document.
