The graphic below identifies the components in the user interface.
1 |
Menus organize commands for performing tasks specific to Project Management. See Command Reference. |
2 |
The toolbar includes command buttons for navigating and managing the Project Management hierarchy. |

The Console pane displays the physical and logical hierarchy of your model, including Satellite locations, databases, permission group folders, and permission groups, in a tree view format. At the top of the tree is the Site root, identified by the icon. The Site root is created when the Smart 3D administrator creates new site and site schema databases. The site database serves as the main or primary database and allows you to access the model and catalog databases and their related schema databases. When you create the site database, you also create the site schema database. The site schema database stores metadata that describes objects for the software, such as pipe, fitting, or a beam.
The hierarchy uses icons to indicate the type and the status of hierarchy items. For more information, see Hierarchy icons. |

The Detail pane displays property data for the object selected in the Console pane. If the node selected in the Console pane contains children, the Detail pane displays data for the children. In the example, the Project1 model is selected in the Project Management tree. The Detail pane displays information regarding its immediate children, or the four permission group folders nested underneath. If the selected node has no children, then only data for node itself displays. In the next example, because the selected permission group has no children, the Detail pane displays data for the item itself. |
