Managing Components and Children Editability

You can select a requirement, a function component or a logical component, with its first level children and switch them between edition or read-only modes.

Before you begin:

From Me > Preferences > App Preferences > Social and Collaborative > Global Design Management > Collaborative Lifecycle > Content Access tab, select Authorize the edition of read-only content with a warning.

If this option is not selected, none of the Read-Only/Editability commands will be available.

  1. In the tree or 2D graph, select one of the following components with children.
    • A Requirement
    • A function component
    • A logical component
  2. From the Edition section of the action bar, select:
    • Switch to Edition with Children : to edit and then save your modification on this function/logical component and on its first level children
    • Switch to Read-Only with Children : to reserve the edition of this function/logical component and its children.

    In the tree, the convenient masks are displayed to indicate what is read-only or editable.

    In the example below, Landing Gear Hydraulic has been switched to edition, along with its first level only children.
