I'm working with the LPM to create some simple objects consisting of two elements. I created the design area and successfully created the first object. I then went to create a second object by adding a library part name and a new design area. Though ...

scottjm gives you a great overview of the choices: a) Export the objects (.gsm) to an external library folder, or b) create an (external LCF) and place in a centrally accessible location. For my part, I am always editing, creating, or re-creating obj...

It doesn’t look like you are using the Mesh tool? With that, you can overlay Splines from your survey over the mesh and, with the magic wand, embed nodes into your mesh and elevate them in groups. There are a few helpful videos on this process. It wi...
