    Where can I find the setting?

    Values

    The default value of the ScrewInsertionMode setting is Normal insertion (value 0).

    Possible values:

    • Normal insertion (0): complete models; the BOM status comes from the part definition.
    • Not inserted (1): the simplified model of the part is used, if available.
    • Inserted as existing parts (2): complete models; screws and anchors are marked as existing, i.e. not numbered and not included in the bill of materials.
    • Not inserted and mark as existing (3): simplified model, screws and anchors are marked as existing.
