·         Library Filters

·         Project Work Break Down Structures (WBS) or Areas

·         Database tools such as Project and Library Syncing

·         and which version of The Steel Detailer is Installed

Information added to the project setup is used at later stages with other functions such as Member Lock, where the library templates are swapped with the Project Templates and Project data is placed into the drawing title block.

Work Break Down Structures (WBS) or Areas are created for Multi-user environments using multiple assemblies in a project at the same level.

Library Filters are setup to find library items in Areas, Welded Members, and Parts.

Database Tools allows the user to work independently on a remote laptop and then come into a networked server and sync the libraries and projects.

The Start-up wizard gives the user tutor ials, quick setup functions and an RSS feed to keep up to date with TSD.
