Editing a Sheathing Tool Library

You can edit the sheathing tool library as follows:

1. Select System Settings > Building Component Libraries > Component Libraries. The Component Libraries database view opens.
2. Move the cursor to a row in the tool library. For example, the library included in the basic delivery:

   frmtool_gen_sheet_sys | Common Sheathing Methods (floors and ceilings)

   frmtool_sheet_sys | Sheathing Methods (walls)

   Use the Up and Down arrow keys.

3. Click the Edit Library button. The Sheathing Rules database view is displayed.

4. Do either of the following:

   • Edit the parameters of an existing tool. Move to the desired tool row using the arrow keys.
   • Create a new tool. Add a row to the database in one of the following ways:
     • Copy an existing row as a basis. Select Edit > Copy Row.
     • Add a new row. Select Edit > Add Row Before or Edit > Add Row After.
5. Edit the parameters in the Sheathing Rules database view.

   Sheathing Methods (walls)
   Sheathing Methods in Library (floor and ceilings)

6. Click OK when you wish to save the data and exit the database view.
