Switches to the Common task.

The Common task refers to the functions shared with other tasks and identifies the commands required to accomplish these functions. Each task user must use these commands when they need to perform certain functions. This guideline ensures that everyone using the numerous tasks of the software performs common operations in the same way.

The task allows you to define a workspace and perform common operations on that workspace, also known as your session. The workspace represents the portion of the model data you need to perform your intended task. This workspace also includes the view settings for user modeling. Many other tasks on the Tasks menu are not available until you have defined and saved your workspace.

After defining your workspace, you can use the Tasks menu to move among the various design tasks. You can perform specified functions, depending on your access permissions. After you select a task, the interface and available functionality appear. Some of the commands and functionality are unique to the particular task. For example, some commands for the Piping task are not available in the Equipment and Furnishings task. However, most of the Common task commands are available in all of the various design tasks. You use the Common task commands and functionality the same way regardless of the active task. For example, the View and File menu commands function the same way in every task.
