  This option manages a publish/subscribe mechanism which will manage the automatic updates of certain events:
  • move
  • shape activation
  • insert
  • replace product
  • delete product
  • UI-activation modification
  • graphic attributes modification
  • Enhanced Scene activation

 

 
 

Update on Product Structure modifications and Scene activation

  
  Uncheck the Update on product structure modifications and scenes activation option if necessary.

If the option is unchecked, some applicative data will not be automatically updated upon the above events. However, if the option is unchecked, performance will be faster. 

By default, this option is checked.
 

  
 

Publish

   

 
 

Browser automatically opened

 
  To activate the automatic launching of Publish results in a browser upon the stopping of the Publish process, in the Publish area, check the Browser automatically opened checkbox .

By default, this option is checked.
 

  
 

Spatial Query parameters

   
  The spatial query calculation is based on a cubic representation of each part, the size of the cubes of which is designated by the accuracy parameter.

The clearance parameter defines an area around the reference selection within which all products are considered "nearby" and outside of which all products are considered "far away".

 
 

Released Accuracy

  
  In the Released accuracy text-entry field, enter the desired released accuracy value.

To force users of the Spatial Query command to use the defined Released Accuracy value, check the Force released accuracy in interactive command checkbox.

The default value for Released accuracy is 20mm.
    By default, the Force checkbox is unchecked.
 

  
 

Clearance

  
  In the Clearance text-entry field, enter the desired clearance value.

To force users of the Spatial Query command to use the defined Clearance value, check the Force clearance in interactive command checkbox.

The default value for Clearance is 0mm.
    By default, the Force checkbox is unchecked.
 

  
 

Import of applicative data

   
 

Do the Import

  
  To activate the applicative data import, click the Do the Import checkbox.

By default, this option is unchecked.

  
 

With a user prompt

  
  This option will be available if you have checked the Do the Import option above.

By default, this option is unchecked.

  
 

Fast Clash detection

   
   

 
 

Use Voxelisation for collision detection

  
  Checking this option enables you to obtain clash detection based upon a specified voxel size.

By default, this option is unchecked.
 

  
 

Voxel size

 
  Specifies the voxel size to use for the clash detection.

By default, this option is valuated to 5mm.

  
 

Sag precision

  
  Specifies the use of the currently defined sag value for the clash detection.

By default, this option is unchecked.
 

  
 

View collision feedback

 
 
  • If you select a voxel size and check the View Collision Feedback button, then you obtain a clash detection with a voxel precision of the specified size, with clashing parts highlighted and the center points of the voxels appearing in red.
  • If you select a voxel size and uncheck the View Collision Feedback button, then you will obtain a clash detection with only the clashing parts highlighted.
  • If you select sag precision and check the View Collision Feedback button, then you obtain a clash detection with the precision of the sag, with clashing parts highlighted and the intersection curve of the clashing parts appearing in red.
  • If you select sag precision and uncheck the View Collision Feedback button, then you obtain clash detection with only the clashing parts highlighted.

By default, this option is unchecked.
 

  
 

DMU Review default properties

   
  This parameter determines the default name for new DMU Reviews that you will create.
