Creating an Archive

You can create an archive of the slide and visualize it by using PLM TimeMachine functionality.

An archive is a record of information taken from a slide. The archive stores its date of creation, the screen capture of the product, and the viewpoint, taken from a slide. You can create multiple archives of a slide.


Before you begin:

Add the Archive slide command in any of the section of the action bar.
