Inserting a Feature

You can insert items (links to PLM References, PLM Representations and design Features).

  1. Select a chapter.

  2. Click Insert Item: Feature .

    Warning:
    • It is not possible to create an Item directly under a Catalog.
    • It is not possible to copy/paste an Item into a Catalog.
    • Only the last version of an Item can be inserted, it is not possible to specify a version.
    • Objects pointed by items will not be displayed in the Catalog tree.
    • Any object that has been modified in session cannot be inserted into a Catalog.
    • Different types of Items can be attached to the same Chapter.
    • When a Reference, Representation or Feature is deleted from the database, the Item pointing to the deleted object is not removed from the Catalog structure. (The next time you try to access the Item, a warning box will indicate that the pointed object has been deleted.)
