I am creating a panel with several different PCB combined into a single panel. How can I generate the centroid file for the entire panel?

I am creating a panel with several different PCB combined into a single panel. I'm trying to make a pick & place file for the panel. There's no assembly menu in the panel. If I enter all the components & ref des in the individual PCBs, and then remake the panel, will the X-Y centroid data follow? Will it inherit the offset? Or will the data just become available to the already made panel?

To export Centroids on a Panel: Go to menu:  File | Export | Centroid File..., and output your centroid file.  All transformations and offsets will be automatically handled by FAB 3000, and you will output a single file that contains all components for the entire panel.
