parts catalog

Before Electrical 2012, I would do a panel layout with all my parts, laid out on a backpanel and the enclosure behind that.  And of coarse the enclosure door is open.  Now when I insert an enclosure, it is the front view only and I don't see back panels in the catalog.  Now I know that our back panels are ordered as a seperate part along with the mounting feet.  Are these parts I will just need to add?  Is there a way to make my drawings look like our old way and still keep the intellegence?

Sure, do you still have your old blocks?  You can continue to use them, although you may have to add attributes to them to upgrade them to ACADE if you haven't already.  If you still have the blocks you used to use you can edit the footprint database to find and use those blocks instead when doing your panel layouts.
