Creating a Requirements Tab
This section contains instructions for displaying a Requirements tab in PSE. Following these instructions will create a Requirements tab which will be displayed in PSE and will only be enabled when a part of a specified type is selected in the structure tree. The tab will display the Requirement objects which are associated with the selected object and provide some operations for working with Requirements as well.
This documentation describes changes to existing files. It is suggested that you create a separate customer file to contain all new elements created.
The following instructions are provided:
Updating the <TabSet> element to include the Requirements tab
Define a <Tab> element for the Requirements tab
Define the <AssociationTable> element for the Requirements tab
Define the <StructureAuthorDefinition> element for the association table
Define the <StructureDefinitionSimple> element for the part to requirement association
Define the <Table> element for the Requirement type
Define the menus for the Requirements tab
Define the labels, tool tips and mnemonics for the Requirements tab
Define <ActionDefinition> elements referred to in the <MenuItem> elements
Implement an 'enabled decider' class to control when the tab is enabled
