Computing Associations between Cableways and Trays

You can compute the associations between cableways and trays. This information is used by other commands or capabilities such as Data Information panel, Knowledgeware or Display Status between Cableways and Trays. The association between cableways and trays is built from the geometry: a tray is associated to a cableway if the geometry is inside the geometry of the cableway. The association can be full or partial.


Before you begin: Open a product containing trays and cableways.
