Objective:

Learn how to open up a Custom Block, or a built-in Toolkit block, to see how it is created.

Applies to:

• Custom Blocks

Procedure:

1. Identify your Custom Block by making sure it has two parallel lines down its left side. This means that the block has a nTopology Notebook running it. 

2. Right-click on the block and select "Export Block". Save the block as a nTop file. 

3. Open up the newly saved nTop file in a new instance of nTopology. From here you can see how it works or edit the process to fit your workflow. 

And that’s it! You’ve successfully opened up a Custom block or a Toolkit.
