Elements
The following components enable the generation of cadwork elements. The elements are displayed as locked elements in cadwork. As soon as the elements are "baked", the locking is removed. Baking is done via the context menu.
Bake all to cadwork unlocks all elements created with Grasshopper (unlocks the elements).
