Menu of the Configurator contains the following sections:
•File — execution of actions with configuration in general,
•Structure – adding new components to the configuration,
•Management — disabling add-ons and recovering lost licenses,
•Settings — automatic license acquisition and disconnection of add-ons in hidden mode.
The commands are described below.
•Save configuration... — saves the current kit configuration to a *.kit.config file. Please note that the *.kit.config file created in this way does not specify absolute paths to component files, but rather paths relative to the folders specified in the ini file by the Apps, Libs, and Utils keys (if no ini file exists, the default key values are used). Thanks to this, the resulting file can then be used as the kit’s default data file.
•Merge with another configuration... — reads data from the user-specified *.kit.config file and merges it with the current kit data.
•Replace configuration... — replaces the current kit data with the data contained in the *.kit.config file specified by the user.
•Supplement with default configuration — search for *.kit.config files in the folder whose path is specified in the ini file via the DefaultKitConfigs key (if no ini file exists, the default key value is used), extract data from them, and merge it with the current kit data.
|
If the Construction Configuration was set up after the first launch of KOMPAS-3D, then to add its components to the current configuration, invoke the Supplement with default configuration command. |
•Restore default configuration — Search for *.kit.config files in the folder specified by the DefaultKitConfigs key in the ini file (if no ini file exists, the default value for the key is used), and replace the current kit data with the data from the files found.
•Add element libraries... — inclusion in the configuration of files of the following types:
•*.kle: KOMPAS element library,
•*.lfr — KOMPAS fragment Library (created in KOMPAS-3D version 16 and earlier),
•*.l3d — KOMPAS model Library (created in KOMPAS-3D version 16 and earlier).
The command for adding a library is also available in the Library Panel (see section Using Libraries of Elements).
•Register Add-Ons... — inclusion in the configuration of add-ons, i.e., files of type *.rtw or *.dll. This command is also available in the Add-Ons option in the Main menu (see section Connecting Add-Ons and libraries to the configuration).
•Add Tools... – connecting files that launch programs to the configuration.
•Disconnect all Add-Ons — disconnect all the connected add-ons (except for built-in add-ons) and libraries from KOMPAS-3D.
•Restore licenses — restore all missing licenses. This command is also available in the Settings option in the Main menu KOMPAS-3D. Licenses may be restored if the reason for the licenses being missing has been eradicated.
•Automatically obtain license to work with KOMPAS-3D – automatic license acquisition for the 3D Modelling module upon the launch of KOMPAS-3D (provided a free license is available on the network dongle key).
•Automatically disconnect KOMPAS add-ons connected in «hidden» mode automatically disconnect all add-ons connected in the hidden mode after these add-ons are closed. «Hidden» mode — mode after it has been automatically launched, e.g. for editing an object inserted from this add-on. It is recommended to automatically disconnect these add-ons if the number of licenses for shared add-ons is less than the number of workstations.

Automatic detaching is not available for the following add-ons: •Standard parts, •Mechanics: Springs, •Equipment: Flat pattern. |
