External Modeling Section

The External Modeling section of the action bar provides commands for managing External Simulation Representations.



Create External Simulation Representations
Create External Simulation Representations from selected products.
See Creating External Simulation Representations.


Export External Simulation Representations
Export External Simulation Representations into a manifest XML file.
See Importing and Exporting External Simulation Representations.


Import External Simulation Representations
Import External Simulation Representations from a manifest XML file.
See Importing and Exporting External Simulation Representations.


Insert External Simulation Representations
Insert External Simulation Representations into the product structure.
See Inserting External Simulation Representations.


Remove External Simulation Representations
Remove External Simulation Representations from the product structure.
See Removing External Simulation Representations.


Edit Relations of External Simulation Representations
Edit the relationship between External Simulation Representations and a PLM object, such as a 3D Shape.
See Editing the Relations Between External Simulation Representations.


Check Relations of External Simulation Representations
Highlighting differentiates products and parts with/without External Simulation Representations.
See Managing the Relations Between External Simulation Representations.


Show Impact on External Simulation Representations
Show the impact of an item in the table editor on the External Simulation Representation and the parent External Simulation Representations. Highlighting differentiates between the row that you selected from the table editor and the rows containing the impacted External Simulation Representations
See Managing the Relations Between External Simulation Representations.


Update Relations of External Simulation Representations
Refresh the out-of-date status of the External Simulation Representations. For example, if a linked Part or 3DShape is changed, the corresponding External Simulation Representations and all impacted External Simulation Representations will become out-of-date and will need to be refreshed.
See Managing the Relations Between External Simulation Representations.


Sheet Editor
Use the sheet editor to edit the attributes of an External Simulation Representation.
See Editing the Attributes of an External Simulation Representations.
