Provides the following options related to the interference checking process at your workstation.

Settings

Displays the Interference Checking Settings Dialog. This dialog allows you to specify the properties for the Local Detect interference. The Database Detect properties must be configured at the server in the Project Management task.

Show Interferences

Displays the types of interferences you specified on the Display tab of the Interference Checking Settings Dialog. These are the interferences that may exist for the objects you select. For example, if you check Clearance as your interference type and Edit as the option for Required Action and then select four pipes in your workspace on which to run the interference check, the software displays only Clearance interferences for those four pipes when you select the Show command. If you do not select any parts, then interferences appear for all parts in the workspace. This command becomes active after interference markers are hidden in the workspace.

Hide Interferences

Hides the interferences that exist for the currently selected parts. If you do not select any parts, then all interferences in the workspace are hidden. All Local Detect interferences in the workspace are automatically hidden when you select this option. For example, if four Database Detect and two Local Detect interferences appear and you select two of the Database Detect interferences to hide, the two Database Detect interferences you selected and all of the Local Detect interferences are hidden. Thus, your workspace contains only two cleared Database Detect interferences.

Fit Interferences

Fits the active graphic view to the parts that match the interference check criteria. For example, you might have six severe interferences and two of these interferences are between a pump and a boiler. If you select this pump and boiler and then click the Fit command on the Check Interference ribbon, the software fits only these two parts into the graphic view. If you do not select any of the six interferences, the Fit command is unavailable.

Refresh Reference 3D Interferences

Retrieves all interferences associated with the Reference 3D (R3D) objects that have at least one participating object in the workspace. See Reference 3D Model in Smart 3D Project Management.

SHARED Tip Click Refresh Workspace Refresh Workspace, File > Refresh Workspace, or press F5 to retrieve interferences between all Smart 3D objects and all other object types. This includes interferences between Smart 3D and Reference 3D objects.

List View

Toggles the display of the Interference List Dialog. The list on this dialog shows all interferences that currently appear in the workspace. The list automatically updates whenever you add an interference object to the workspace. You can add an interference from the Local Detect process, or when you select the Refresh Workspace or Define Workspace commands.

Required Action

Select the action required to deal with the selected database detected interference:

Undefined - not yet reviewed

The interference has not been reviewed and needs to be.

Edit - must resolve the interference

The interference has been reviewed. After being reviewed, it was determined that the interference between the objects must be resolved.

None - ignore the interference
