    HELP HOW TO I ADD MORE TABS AFTER ADDING THEM AUTOMATICALLY

    VCARVEPRO V12
    I used the automatic tab feature to add two tabs to the parts, now after reviewing the tab placement i find i need to add a few more tabs manually. I went back and added the tabs manually but in doing that it erased all the automatic tabs.
    How do I add additional tabs manually after I add them automatically?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    to my knowledge you cannot, you either add tabs automatically at the nominated spacing OR you place the tabs manually. There is only one data structure for tabs (again to my knowledge)
    and that data structure is populated with data from either of two methods, namely automatic placement OR manual placement.

    Beside noting that this is the Autodesk section of the forum,where you may not have too many Vectric users browsing,I would suggest that you might more easily find answers on Vectric's own forum https://forum.vectric.com/.

    From memory I believe there is a check box in the tab control section that you can check to get to a further section that will allow you to edit the tabs on the component.The Vectric way of doing things seems to be a little different to some others and they use their own terminology for some things.I believe if you can find the tutorials,you will find something there that will help.
