Q. CIM

cannot be saved, and

does not save and displays an error message

is displayed

.

 

A. In CIM,

model files are saved only in the

the working file is saved in Base Mode only.

If the user is

running a mode other than the Base

in a different Mode,

click

please select [Mode OK] and

then proceed with saving

save in

the

Base Mode.

 

Figure 1. Mode Types of in CIM Modes


CIM consists of a total of 9 Modes , with that are centered around the Base Mode as the center mode.

Each mode Mode consists of a different work screens and panels so that users can workscreen and panel for the user to model in an optimal environment.

In each mode, the user can return to the Base Mode by saving /and exiting the work donecurrent mode.

There are two types of CIM storage schemesystems: saving Saving the entire work in Base Mode in the form of a cimz file in the Base mode, and exporting the entire work to the libraryLibrary.

Figure 2. File Saving in CIM storage scheme

A working CIM model file can be saved by going to the File menu - in Base Mode through the Save/Save as button in the Base Mode.The user can use under the File menu or through the keyboard shortcut [ Ctrl + S ]/[ Ctrl + Shift + S ].

All work progress When the working file is saved in Base Mode, all operations including drawing/analysis/construction animation/cutting view/Subsub-Librarylibrary/layout in the Base mode is saved in the fileare saved.

Q. Can I save the

library

Library file separately?

 

A.

After entering

In the

library

Library, the user can use the export/import feature to save/import the library separately

through the Export/Import feature

.

In CIM, not only CIM work files but also libraries can be extracted and saved CIM allows the user to export and save working CIM files as well as libraries separately.

By extracting exporting and maintaining the library file files separately, it can be used in other projects in the future as well.

Modeling can be done faster and easier by utilizing the library assets the user has.

In the extracted library file, including the sub-library, the user can utilize the saved libraries for other projects to model faster and easier.

The exported library also contains the sub-library as well as the section information (User Section) and the drawing information (Drawing View) are saved together.

Figure 4-2. Library Export ( Works Tree )

Library Export is available in The library can be exported from the Export main panel of each Library Mode and can also be extracted as well as from the Works Tree in the Base Mode.

These exported Library files created this way can be loaded imported through the Import feature on the in each library main panel of each library in the Base mode.
