Product Build-Up Options Panel

The Product Build-Up Options panel lets you define the transparency and the color of objects that are part of the product build-up.

To open the panel, click Product Build-Up Options at the right edge of the work area.

Important: If the Product Build-Up options icon is not displayed, you need to open the 3D View panel first. For more information, see Common Services for Process Engineering Apps: Native Apps: 3D View.

This page discusses:



Object Selection and Lock Status

Restore Nominal State
Restores the selected object to its state before build-up. This includes:
  • Graphical properties: colors and display options.
  • Position:
    • For products, the design position
    • For resources, the position you defined before executing the build-up
Note: If the Lock Product Build-Up option is specify to ON , the Restore Nominal State option is disabled.
Lock Product Build-Up
ON : Locks the status and the name of the selection. The name of the selection appears on the left-hand side of the Product Build-Up Options panel.
OFF : Updates the Product Build-Up Options panel with the status and the name of the current selection.

Display

This section provides options that control the resources and parts color display.

Show Build-Up Color
ON : Displays parts according to the defined build-up colors.
OFF : Displays parts according to the design colors.
Resources Display
Show All Resources : Displays all the resources.
Show Only Assigned Resources : Displays the resources assigned to the selection.
Hide All Resources : No resources display.
Show FT&A
ON : FTA requirements defined on operations are displayed in the Assignment Manager and 3D View panels.
OFF : FTA requirements defined on operations do not display.

By default, Selects this option.

Note: Enabling resources display, product build-up manages positions defined on operations. However, this option does not take into account when using the Define Position and Copy Position capabilities. In these cases, resources implementing the operation are displayed in color and other resources are displayed in a ghost mode (black transparency).

Behavior

In this section, you can edit the display of tracks, previously added parts and worker walkway information.

Apply Track
ON : All tracks defined apply on operations.
OFF : All tracks defined on operations display but do not apply.
Restrict to Product Flow
ON : Previously added parts display based on defined product flow between systems.
OFF : Previously added parts based on defined product flow between systems do not display.

Advanced Options

This section provides commands to define reframe, highlight, and simulation step options.

Reframe on Added Parts
ON : Reframe options do not activate.
OFF : Added parts do not reframe in the work area.
Center Tree on Operation
ON : Centers the tree on the current selection.
OFF : The current selection not centers on the tree.
Highlight with Glow
ON : The selected object highlights with glow.
OFF : The selected object highlights without any glow.
Simulation Step
Next/Previous Step: Operation : Runs the simulation operation by operation.
Next/Previous Step: System : Runs the simulation system by system.
Reset Product Data
ON : Resets the product data.
OFF : Allows the modifications of the product data.
Reset Review Data
ON : Resets the review data. The marker no longer display.
OFF : Displays the marker.

Color and Transparency Options

You can define the color and transparency of the build-up categories of operations, systems, or manufactured items. The build-up categories displayed vary according to the selected object.

Each option has:

  • A Show or Hide command to show or hide the corresponding operation/system.
  • A check box to switch between the design color and build-up color.
  • A slider to manage the transparency value. Whenever the transparency value specifies as 0% the corresponding geometry does not display.
  • A color command that runs a color palette to manage the color of the corresponding geometry.

Current
Displays objects according to the current selection.
Note: Also applicable for products or resources.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Yellow and 100% opacity.

Previous in the System
Displays all previous operations or systems in the working context.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Blue and 100% opacity.

Previous
Displays all previous implementing objects from previous systems.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Blue and 100% opacity.

Parallel
Displays all objects in parallel.

By default, Color and transparency values deactivate. Orange and 75% opacity.

Mfg Context
Displays the selected object in context.
  • When you select a product or resource, the context represents all other parts of the entire product or resource structure.
  • When you select an operation or system, the context represents all products loaded in session that not implements by any operation.

By default, Color and transparency values deactivate. White and 75% opacity.

Missing
Displays all manufactured items that did not load before the current selection.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Red and 100% opacity.

Assigned
Displays manufactured items implemented by operations.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Light blue and 100% opacity.

Assignable
Displays manufactured items that do not implement by any operation.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Orange and 100% opacity.

Siblings
Displays manufactured items sharing the same father manufactured item.

By default, Color and transparency values activate. Orange and 75% opacity.
