In connection with the creation of enclosures of the Rittal series "TS8", "AE", and "CM", which have been imported into the layout space as STEP data, it is possible to place the base points automatically in a manner suitable for the enclosure series.

Preconditions:

• You have opened a macro project.
• You have opened the layout space navigator and a layout space.
• The layout space contains the imported 3D graphic that is to be saved as an enclosure.
• The four lateral vertical profiles as well as the cover and floor profiles have a corresponding function definition and item designation.

1. Select the 3D graphic in the layout space or the layout space navigator.
2. Select the command Transfer base point scheme. (To this purpose you first have to Customize the ribbon and then assign the desired command to a user-defined command group.)
3. In the Transfer base point scheme dialog, activate the option button in front of the name of the enclosure series whose base point scheme is to be transferred to the 3D graphic.
4. Click [OK].
   
   The base points of the selected enclosure series are defined at the 3D graphic automatically.
