                   In the Options window that appears, click Geometry Import on the left panel,
                     and make sure that SpaceClaim Direct Modeler is selected as the Preferred
                     Geometry Editor under the General Options on the right panel as shown
                     below.





























                   Right-click on the Geometry Cell and choose Properties from its drop-down con-
                     text menu to bring up the Properties of Schematic A3: Geometry panel. From
                     that panel under Basic Geometric Options, select Line Bodies to enable truss
                     modeling. Next, double-click on the Geometry cell to launch the SpaceClaim
                     program.
