  5. If you need more than one bolt property type, select the Add Add Icon button to create additional properties.
  6. Alternatively, you can copy current bolt properties to another bolt property, or import bolt properties from another UnWedge file.
    • Copy Current Properties Copy Icon: This will create a copy of the currently selected bolt property
    • Import From File Import Icon: This allows you to import bolt properties from another UnWedge file. Enter a filename path in the edit box, or select the dialog button to navigate to a file.
  7. To define the bolt properties, click on the tab for each bolt property and enter the desired parameters.

When you add bolts to the model (e.g., Add Pattern Bolts), you will be able to assign a bolt property type to the bolts, by selecting from a list of the Bolt Properties types which you have created in the Bolt Properties dialog.
