"Manual Unstructured Layout Recovery"

The "Manual Layout Recovery" wizard allows you to define one or more patterns for creating a struc­tured layout. This wizard is used mainly in cases where you have an unstructured layout in which Prinect Signa Station Packaging Pro & Label Pro can not detect any parts. In this case you can man­ually define which objects form a part.

You can use this option only after you follow the following steps:

1.Click "Unstructured Layout Recovery" in the "Layout" tab. See Dialog "Automatic Unstructured Layout Recovery" (Packaging Pro).

2.Click the "Manual" button in the wizard. The "1up" tab displays.

3.Select the objects which form the 1up element.

4.Click the button "Manual Layout Recovery". A wizard containing two steps opens:

·First step: "Shape name"

·Second Step: "1up Placement"

 

First step: "Shape name"

At this step you define a name for the 1up. Go to the "1up Placement" wizard page with "Next".

Second Step: "1up Placement"

In this step you define how to place the 1up pattern in the layout. Prinect Signa Station Packaging Pro & Label Pro displays the currently selected 1up and all positions at which it appears in the layout.
