The board tool is used to create manual panels (from avariety of materials such as TFL, mirror, markerboard, etc.), fabric boards, and track walls, and more. They are best placed on an empty section of wall or between components or shelves where it’s not completely enclosed (where the applied panel tool may be more appropriate) as users can dictate the size of them.
Select the Board Boards option in from the ribbon toolbar. Hover over the desired location and left click and drag , hold, and move the cursor to create a box to create the board in roughly the desired size.
This can be edited after placement.
Boards move and delete like others parts.
Double click on the board to move it, or click and drag the nodes on the perimeter to resize it.
They can also resize using the nodes surrounding the board, or type double click on the dimensions that surround the board in Elevation view to type in a new number, and press enter to set (see left).

There will be a “Panel too tall/wide” warning errors if the board is too large for the selected material. If you see Rotate Grain, Reduce Height or Reduce Width, edit as necessary. |
If placing or moving a board, and it interferes with a component/part/design zone, the user will see a warning X. Move or resize the board for the warning to disappear.
