Introduction

1.1 About the DESIGN Reference Manual ference nce Man ual describes all the DESIGN commands Th e PDMS DE S IGN R efere in detail. It also describes how the Design database is structured, the Design database elements elements and their att ributes.

DESIGN is normally used interactively. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides discipli discipline-based ne-based a pplicat pplicat ions ions which h elp you you to creat e, check check a nd report on t he model. How to use t he ap plicat plicat ions ions is described in in u ser guides an d on-line on-line help. This manual is written for experienced users of PDMS DESIGN who need to use comm comm an ds; for for example, to write bat ch ma cros or to cust cust omise the GUI. If you you a re going going t o cust cust omise the GUI, you will also need to refer t o the Cadcentre S oftware Custom Custom isation isation Guide a n d Cadcentre S oftware Custom Custom isation Referenc Reference e Man ua l for info inform ation about P ML, the Cadcent Cadcent re pr ogramm ing language.
