Create your own click point


Description

The click points from the systems of the scaffolding manufacturers are displayed in the list.
The list always contains pairs of values, i.e. a plus and a minus value.
These two points attract each other "magnetically", so they can be docked to each other.
So if you want to add a click point to your own component for docking to a component from a scaffolding manufacturer,
you look for the right pair of values and add the corresponding click point to your own component.
According to this rule, you can also create your own click points, e.g. the two click points +1000 and -1000 belong together and attract each other magnetically.

The click points of the scaffolding manufacturers must not be changed.
Start with a value of 1000 for own click points, the range should be up to 1000 for internal click points.
