Element Content Items

For each applicable project element, use various content items to define the element's properties and characteristics to build out your project specifications.

The following content items are available for the following element types:

Element Type Content Item
Assemblies
Subassemblies and Divisions
  • None
Families, Sections, and Product Types

You specify most of your projects' contents under families, sections, and product types. In the project workspace, you can modify, show, and hide content items, such as paragraphs and articles. This enables you to create properties and build out project requirements based on Specpoint's baseline content or based on your firm's office masters. You can also add new articles and paragraphs to create more specialized project content.

Actions that you perform on content items affect other content items. When you make specific changes to your articles and paragraphs, Specpoint makes automated changes to related content items, as well as limit your actions, to preserve the structure and hierarchy of contents on this level.
