About 2D Graphical Knowledge Rules in Design Review

From Functional & Logical Design, knowledge functions can be used to set or get the graphical data of entities. Some of these knowledge functions are compatible with Design Review.

This page discusses:

Prerequisite

To integrate these Knowledge functions into Design Review, you must define them at the level of functional and logical occurrences.

For this, from the tree, right-click the RuleBase and select Properties.

From the Properties dialog box, select All Occurrences Objects Navigation in the Working mode list.

You can then edit your knowledge scripts using LogicalOccurrence or FunctionalOccurrence as value for your knowledge types (instead of SysConnectable).

Important:
  • There is no knowledge type for ports or connections in this working mode. You have to retrieve the occurrence that is owner of the port or of te connection, and then pass both the owner and the PLM port or connection to the function.
  • When you work on an occurrence outside of Design Review, note that you work with an instance of this occurrence, not with the occurrence itself (or reference).
