DMU Clash - Process  

The DMU Clash - Process tab contains two categories:

• General

• Default XML paths

General

XML Export for clash process purpose

Selecting this check box exports clash results and geometry to XML files as part of a standalone clash process.

By default, this check box is selected.

Federated XML output

Selecting this check box generates one file per conflict plus one header file summarizing results. If you de-activate this option, a single large XML file containing all conflicts is generated.

By default, this check box is selected.

Picture generated in XML

Selecting this check box generates pictures in png format in a picture folder. This option has an obvious impact on performance.

By default, this check box is selected.

Zoom on interference

Selecting this check box enables the zoom on the selected clash result in the XML file.

Transparent background

Selecting this check box displays a transparent background for pictures retrieved in the XML clash results file.

By default, this check box is selected.

Aggregate files in folders

Selecting this check box creates a dedicated clash result folder in which all the clash result related files (i.e. .xml, .jpg, .xsl, .dtd, etc.) are stored.

By default, this check box is selected.

Browser automatically opened

Selecting this check box automatically opens a browser displaying results when clash results are exported.

Default XML Paths

Data base repository

Enter the path giving the default location in which to save the XML files, or select this location using Browse...

Note: If you set the DLName document environment (Tools > Options > General > Document) as your current environment, clicking Browse... will open the DLName dialog box instead of the usual Directory Browser dialog box.

The DLName dialog box displays the list of DLNames that have been defined when you set your document environment. Simply select the DLName, then click OK to validate.

By default, this field is left blank.

Style sheet location

Enter the path identifying your customized style sheet, or select it using Browse...

Note: If you set the DLName document environment (Tools > Options > General > Document) as your current environment, clicking Browse... will open the DLName dialog box instead of the usual Style Sheet Selector dialog box.

The DLName document environment lets you restrict the access to specific folders referenced by logical names referred to as 'DLNames'. Each folder is assigned a logical name. In this mode, you can only access documents in folders referenced by DLNames.

By default, this field is left blank.
