      <p class="para_topic">A toggle switch to specify whether or not piece part factors used in manufacturing are enforced for the loaded part.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">All part files, whether they are piece parts, subassemblies, or assemblies, use the .prt extension and can be manipulated in pretty much the same way. However, there are times when the distinction between an assembly and a piece part is significant. For example, it is rarely sensible to add a component to a piece part; components should only be added to assemblies. To prevent such inadvertent mistakes, you can mark a part as being a piece part using this option. </p>
