    The document opens as a root in CATIA V5.

    You must hold the Shift key when you drop the objects when you perform a partial load.

    The supported types for drag and drop are product, part, process, analysis, and drawing. By using the drag and drop shortcut, you can open the entire structure under the selected document.

    You can drag a filter object from the search results, and drop it in CATIA V5. You can update your product structure revisions by dragging objects from the web and dropping them in CATIA V5. You must hold the Alt key when you drop the objects.

    Note: Drag and drop is available for Bookmark Editor, results of search, and Product Structure Explore also. However, you cannot drag and drop a design table.
