Entity Editor
Edit part and component attributes in the Entity Editor.
Edits can be made for a single part or component or multiple parts and components. If a component is selected, the Entity Editor displays component specific attributes.
The attributes available in the Entity Editor vary based on the entity type selected.
Part/Part Assembly
- General Data
- Displays attributes that are unique to the part or assembly, including part/assembly name, Unique ID (UID), color, and include file, and Revision data.
- Representations Data
- Displays attributes that are specific to a part representation, such as representation name, file location, property ID, material ID/name, and thickness. These attributes are non-editable at the part level.
- Position Data
- Displays the 4 x 3 transformation matrix of a part, namely its translation, rotation, and scaling. These attributes are non-editable.
- PDM Data
- Displays PDM attributes that were parsed as metadata during the BOM importation, such as PDM ID, PDM Revision, PDM Variant Condition and PDM Variant Scope. This information, namely the PDM PID, PDM MID, PDM Material and PDM Thickness, is used to generate the initial component, property, and material cards upon creation of the common representation. These attributes can be used to cross-reference common and discipline specific mesh representation attributes.
Part Set
- General Data
- Displays attributes that are unique to the part set, including part/assembly name and ID.
- Part Assemblies / Parts Data
- Displays the number of parts organized into the selected part set.
- Part Sets Data
- Displays the number part sets organized into the selected part set.
Configuration
- General Data
- Displays attributes that are unique to the configuration, including name, and ID.
- Parts Assemblies / Parts Data
- Displays the number of parts organized into the selected configuration.
- Configurations Data
- Displays the number of configurations organized into the selected configuration.
- Part Sets Data
- Displays the number part sets organized into the selected configuration.
- Active
- Indicates the active/inactive state of the selected configuration. This attribute is non-editable. To activate a configuration, enable the configuration’s associated checkbox in the Active column of the Configuration view.
