Customizing Point Import Wizard

If you usually use a specific unit of measure, a certain spline order, or have gotten tired of all the pop-up help bubbles, there are several properties you can change and save so the next time you use Point Import Wizard, it will be set up the way you want it. You do this by selecting Save Settings As Defaults from the File menu. There are the settings that are saved:

  • Import Points As: Either Points, Lines or Curve
  • Units: Any one of the units in the list box
  • Enable Popup Help: From the Tools menu, this will enable or disable the popup help bubbles.
  • Expand Tree by Default: From the Tools menu, this will cause the items in the Sketch or Plane area to be expanded (all visible) or collapsed (only sketch names visible).
  • Show Success Dialog: From the Tools menu, this will cause the "Import Successful" dialog box (with the import summary data) to be shown or skipped upon successful import.
  • Default B-Spline Order: From the Tools menu, this option sets the polynomial order of the b-splines that Point Import Wizard creates.
