Saving a Drawing

When you save the Drawing, a general link is created between the drawing and the part/assembly on which it was based:

  1. From the SmarTeam menu, choose Save (or Save As ).
    A CATIA Drawing Profile Card is displayed.

  2. Fill in the fields in the Profile Card.

  3. Click OK .
    The drawing is saved to the SmarTeam database, and a general link is created linking the Drawing to the part/assembly on which it was based.
    In this way, SmarTeam reflects the nature of the Drawing. As you manage the revisions of the part/assembly, you can manage the revisions of the Drawing in parallel.
    It is now possible to see the different sheets of a CATDrawing document in the SmarTeam viewer. For more information, see Enabling Multi-Sheet CATDrawing Documents Preview.

See Saving a Part for the First Time for detailed instructions on using Save or Saving a Part After Modifications for detailed instructions on using Save As .

However, you can expose only the documents and their links as shown below:

Only the administrator can make the necessary modifications via the smarteam.std.legacyPreferences.config.xml file. For more information, see the SmarTeam documentation.
