  • Technical views

    Subsequent storage of technical views in the form of pra files is possible.

  • Mixed catalogs

    Mixed catalogs are permitted. This means, for example, that a catalog may contain a chapter "A" with parts or assemblies that were created with eCATALOGsolutions and a chapter "B" with parts that were created using the Import neutral formats in batch run [Batch import neutral formats (Quick and Simple)] command (Quick and Simple) [Batch import neutral formats (Quick and Simple)].

    Mixed assemblies are not permitted.

    This means that projects that were created using Import neutral formats in batch run (Quick and Simple) [Batch import neutral formats (Quick and Simple)] may not be used in assemblies together with normally modeled projects.
