A number of default parameters must be configured in order to ensure the proper operation of the Plot Management module. Select
to open the mask.

XREL CLN |
The folder structure is updated after the structure explosion. Available parameter values:
|
XREL EXP Project |
Explosion mode for project structures. |
XREL EXP Document |
Explosion mode for document structures. |
XREL EXP Item |
Explosion mode for item structures. |
The list of available structure explosion parameters for the
folder includes , , , and :
The function
executes a single-level, multi-dimensional (i.e. spanning several modules) structure
explosion for a single element. Both, the elements assigned to the level below
the original element and the original element itself are displayed.
The function executes a single-level, multi-dimensional (i.e. spanning several modules) structure explosion for a single element. The elements assigned to the level below the original element are displayed. The original element itself is not displayed.
The function executes a multiple level/multi-dimensional structure explosion for a single element. Beginning with the selected element, all relationships with other elements are traced throughout all modules. The original element and its subordinate elements are displayed in a tree structure.
The function executes a single-level,
multi-dimensional (i.e. spanning all modules) structure explosion for a single
element. The user is prompted to confirm the deletion of the original element
from the list unless virtual mode is enabled.
Objects
with non-plotable status are not plotted in a structure if the n*tree functionality
is used.
The n*Tree-based structure explosion leaves all parent relations intact for
use in other functions (item number, project number in stamps, etc.).
It is possible to integrate custom document validation processes. To end this,
it is necessary to call a customizing function at each node and a PreInsert
and PostInsert function at the node.
Using a Return code, the PreInsert function can define whether or not a document
is added to the job.
This is done using the compound.
The compound provides four procedures whose names must not be modified.
