Hello There
What is the most efficient way to Navigate and Manage Objects (Parts, Drawings, Assemblies, etc.) in a specific Collab Space in 3DX?
Also what is the most efficient way to get from the Relations App to the Collab Lifecycle App?
Manage in this case means:
- To check the relations: if they are properly connected,
- managing loose objects,
- setting obsolete/freeze/release,
- move objects to correct collab.
- Testing with B.I. (nice command)
- make remarks for other users on errors (currently external I dont know how the internal one works yet)
- testing for interference
Situation:
- If you do a search (with 6W tags filtering and so on) you can directly open the Collab Lifecycle App and manage the list of filtered objects. Now quite so often I need to check what the relations of a part are so I need to switch to Relations. This closes the filtered search window and opens the relations window with the respective selected object. After checking the relations window I need to get back to the filtered window or I want to manage the lifecycle of the related objects. However opening the Collab Lifecycle from Relations does not switch but opens a separate unrelated window.
- Current strategy:
- I do not find any Parent / Child that needs extra attention:
- I open a new tab (so that Relations app is not active!) and click on the search button to switch back to my latest filtered seach and continue.
- This works as long as I dont need to search for something in between and redo the entire 6W filtering.
- You can apparently save favorite seaches but I was unable to find out how it works so far. (How?)
- I do find a Parent / Child that need extra attention:
- I open the part and then work with the loaded part in the lifecycle app.
- Takes time opening every part every time.
- I do not find any Parent / Child that needs extra attention:
- A new strategy I found that Im currently experimenting with is by using the Relations App on the web browser. In this case I drag and drop the object I want to check into the Relations App in the web browser.
- I also use the Engineering Release App in the web browser to support checking the Status of all the objects contained in the targeted Assembly.
Is there a more streamlined or a more efficient strategy to solve my tasks? What is the 3DX philosophy for this basically?
