How do I insert a standard part?
- Type into the search field of the panel Standard parts, e.g. 4762 M6 — or click through the folder tiles.
- Tick Insert as block if the part should count in the parts list.
- Click the tile of the part. It hangs at the mouse at its insertion point.
- Rotate with R (90°) or type the angle into the placement HUD; 📐 Measure angle takes a direction from the drawing.
- Click the target point with snap. Every further click places another part; Esc ends.


Grip the part at another point
Press B and click a snap point of the orange frozen part — it becomes the new grip.
Part on the active layer
With the check box On current layer the part lands completely on the active layer instead of creating its layers NT-Kontur, NT-Mittellinie etc.
Part from your own computer
Insert a local standard part opens a standard part file without a server.
