Creating Plates and Shapes

This section discusses creations of plates and shapes.
NOTE: In R15 and later releases, do not use the Type drop down list in the Shape dialog box to choose a catalog.
To select a different catalog:
You can modify your project resources management (PRM) file.
You can create a new PRM (recommended if you don’t want to modify your PRM because of several resources for your project), and point to the new one before instantiating SR1 shapes.
