Loading a Subpart
Optionally, you can use the LOAD SUBPART command to add a drawing as a subpart to a drawing that is already loaded.
Proceed as follows:
1. Enter LOAD SUBPART.
2. Enter the name of the drawing file you want to load as a subpart drawing.
3. Position the reference point of the loaded part relative to the drawing's coordinate system. This can be done in two ways:
a. Pick the location of the part's reference point, or
b. Enter the qualifier ABSOLUTE to load several drawings onto each other using the standard or absolute coordinates. Creo Elements/Direct 2D Access automatically loads the part back into the same position, relative to the origin, from which it was originally stored.
The system will now load the subpart drawing file beneath the top part. Refer to
Spotlighting Parts for further information on viewing parts in
Creo Elements/Direct 2D Access.
