Create report database for standalone project
|
Some S3D filters require Report database for
execution. If you do not have Reports database created, then such a filters
will not be visible in the filters tree when you select filter for export.
To create a report database for a standalone
project, highlight your project in
Standalone Projects list, click
Tools button, then select
Create Report Database item from drop-down
list. The Create Report Database dialog opens.
- Report
database name - Specifies a name for the database to be created and
database server authentication properties. A report database will be created on
the same DB server where Model database resides.
Database users must have a
Database Administrator role on
database server.
If a database with the same name already
exists, you'll see a warning message. If you agree to create a new database
with the same name, then old database will be removed.
Click
OK and wait while the database is
being created. When the project is restored you get the following message:
"Report database for project <project
name> was successfully created:"

Edit path to Reference3D Models for standalone
project
|
If standalone project has Reference 3D models
attached, it is necessary to give
PlantSight Smart 3D Bridge Extractor possibility to access these Reference 3D model files (with
.zvf extension).
After project restoring users must copy model files
(keeping folder structure) to service machine or give access to shared folders
with these files.
The Edit Reference3D Model Info dialog allows user
to set actual path to Reference 3D model files.
Highlight your project in
Standalone Projects list, click
Tools button, then select
Edit Reference3D Models... item from
drop-down list. The Edit Reference3D Model Info dialog opens.
The dialog lists all Reference3D models in
standalone projects. You can modify File Path for desired 3D models.
