Specify the archetypes or underlying types that support creation of structures

Learn how to specify which underlying types (archetypes) can be used to create structures. The Awb0SupportsStructure global constant controls which types can be opened in the active content explorer. You must add each type that supports structure, including subtypes, to this constant.

The Awb0SupportsStructure global constant controls the types that can be opened in the active content explorer. This constant can take multiple values and each value is the name of a type that supports structure. Only the names of types that are specified in this constant can be opened in the explorer. The structure property is not inherited by subtypes, that is, you must add each subtype separately.

By default, this constant includes ItemRevision, DesignRevision and PartRevision as the values. For BVR structures, use the ItemRevision type as the value.

For more information, see Change the value of a global constant.
