About the Community Panel

You can connect with your communities to access expertise and find solutions, to join forums and discussions, or to exchange ideas and news with colleagues.

Using the Community panel, you can access the following communities:

  • 3DEXPERIENCE platform communities that your organization creates.
  • 3DSwYm communities such as product and support areas for all Dassault Systèmes customers.

Note: Communities create a permanent repository of information that is stored as topics and comments, and you can access them either from the Community panel in or a web browser.

You can use the commands built into the Community panel. For example, in the Community panel, when working with blogs or iQuestions, you can do the following:

  • Add a screen clipping of the work area.
  • Insert a 3D model of the open physical product.
  • Attach a file.
  • Add an image of the desktop.

The Community categories might include the following:

  • Recent shows the most recent content from blogs, media, and iQuestions.
  • Blog lets community members add new discussion topics in the community, or respond to existing topics.
  • Media contains images, video, or other media that is included in any post.
  • iQuestions lets community members post and answer questions from other community members.
  • Wiki displays the table of contents of the Wiki page. Double-click an item in the table of contents to open a web browser and display the Wiki page.
