Project Manager - Pages Tab
The Pages tab lists all of the drawings in the selected WorkSet.
Accessed from the Project Manager. The Pages tab has two sub-tabs:
- Details: Shown above, the
drawings are listed in columns of text information. The user can customize the
columns that are displayed by right clicking in the column heading area and
selecting the checkbox for the page information that you wish to appear as
shown in the following figure. The order of column headings can be changed by
dragging the heading for a column to the left or right. The user can also click
on a column to sort by the entries in that column.
One of the columns in the detailed view is labeled User. This field identifies the name of the person who has that page currently open. This is a useful feature for a multi-user environment because it allows the user to see which users have which pages open in the same project. Sometimes the other users may need exit the project to run a project-wide function.
- Thumbnails: Displays the pages as thumbnail images.

This option flags pages that have changes that will occur the next time they are opened due to changes elsewhere in the project. The same icon on the button will appear next to any page in the Project Manager that has pending changes in the database that have not yet been updated on the drawing. This handy visual aid lets the user know that certain drawing files are not up to date yet because they were never reopened after changes were made to the project that affect those pages. |
