Define Mfg Item Sub Component Dialog Box

This displays the Leaf-Level-Manufacturing-Items (LLMI) for defining them as Sub-Component-Mfg-Items (SCMI).

The SCMI defines only for the active Operation and manages in Views of Operation to define specific graphic properties or marker (Label, 3DText, and others) on them.

Minimize, Close
This minimizes or closes the Sub Comp Items. When Closing , the 3D Visualization updates. You would be able to define graphic properties and create Dressups on the SCMI.
Add
This adds the implement link between the SCMI and the Active-Operation. Select this after selecting an item in the 3D Geometry window.
  • Activate and define SCMIs for an Operation, which is applicable for it.
  • The SCMIs defined are applicable to that operation only. Their definitions cannot be shared with other (sibling) operations.
Remove
This removes the SCMI. From the user interface, select SCMI, then remove, and if they have graphic properties or a marker defined, you are prompted to confirm the deletion. If you want to continue without deleting, then the links preserved otherwise, delete.
Sub Comp Item
This lists the defined SCMIs.
Item
This lists the Buildup of Manufacturing Items (MI).

Note:
  • Only LLMI is selectable.
  • Select only Leaf-Level-Manufacturing-Item (LLMI) for defining SCMI.
  • You are unable to define SCMIs (or subdivide) an Operation-Output.

Logical Checks - Checking for Authored View of content before Sub Component removal.

  • Unselecting a section in the panel and selecting OK, a verification starts on all Views authored for the active Operation and all of its children Operations.
  • If any View contains a position and or a graphic properties Overload and Marker pointing to the object selected, a warning message displays. Choose to continue or roll back the change.

    This shows behavior with the Resource-Sub-Component. Similar behavior with the SCMIs

    This ensures that all Manufacturing Items have geometry to display. The command throws a warning message your selection of the SCMIs would result in the Manufacturing Item not having a leaf (either itself or a child) to provide geometry to display in the 3D.

Graphical Properties on Sub-Components -This illustrates the graphical-behaviors that happen executing.

  1. No overload colors defined on the BuildUp-Item(s) or SCMIs.
  2. Overload colors defined on the BuildUp-Item(s) only.
  3. Overload colors defined on one or more SCMIs only.
  4. Overload colors defined on the BuildUp-Item(s) and SCMIs. The Overload-color of the parent BuildUp-Item(s) overrides the Overload colors defined on one or more SCMIs.
Note: The illustration mentions about colors. The same rule is applicable for other graphics-properties like opacity and visibility (hide/show).
