Workshop has a library of shapes and cutouts. You can add, delete, edit and import shapes and cutouts in the library. Shapes and cutouts are saved in the library so over time you can build up a library of commonly used shapes.
To edit the library of shapes and cutouts:
Ø Edit the shapes and cutouts in the Library window
The drawing in the window will display the currently selected group, shape and cutout. You can change which shape and cutout are selected by choosing the appropriate items from the Group, Shape and Cutout drop down lists at the top of the window.
The drawing allows you to edit the shape or cutout using the tools in the toolbar at the top of the window. At any time you can edit either the shape or one of its cutouts. The tools available are as follows:
|

Workshop Library window
You can select which shape to display by clicking on its name in the Shape list. This will make the shape the current shape and will display its shape in the drawing. It will also update the list of cutouts available for this shape. Each shape can have a number of cutouts associated with it. This makes it easy for you to specify different cutouts for a given stringer shape for different frames in the hull.
You can select which cutout to display by choosing its name from the Cutout list.
You can add and delete shapes and cutouts from the library. There is no limit on the number of items you can have in the library.
