Illustrations in a Parts List
Display in Parts List Structure
Use these options to make the illustrations associated with a parts list visible in the parts list structure tree.
• Viewing action set in the Structure tab of the parts list’s information page — select Illustrations or use the Manage Related Information option
• Context menu for parts list — select the Show/Hide Related Information option
A list of illustrations associated with a parts list is also provided in the Dynamic Documents table on the Related Objects tab for a parts list.
Illustrations added to a parts list appear at the top of the parts list structure tree, directly below the parts list object. Their order is determined by the value of their Print Order attribute (note: this is an optional attribute. No order can be guaranteed if the attribute is not set). Parts list items are listed below the illustrations.
You can set the Print View attribute to specify which figure from the graphic should appear when the parts list is published to a format that does not support intelligent graphics, i.e. PDF.
By default, an illustration displays the attributes exposed for a parts list — Number, Name, and Version attributes. Customize the view of the structure to access other graphic attributes, such as State (work state). See Customizing Table Views for information.
