The following changes have been made to the Project Management task.

Hot Fix and Service Pack Updates

Version 2016 (11.0)

  • Reorganized throughout for improved readability.

  • Added information about the Model Data Reuse wizard operations. See Model Data Reuse (MDR) Command. (P1 CP:227829)

  • Updated the Run Database Administration Processes table to show that there is a risk running the drawing extraction processes concurrent with the bulkload process. See Run database administration processes. (P1 CP:227829)

  • You can now register multiple point cloud vendors separately for a particular model database. See Attach a Point Cloud model. (P1 CP:246829)

  • The default Reference 3D Model Type is now SmartPlant Interop Publisher. See New Reference 3D Model Dialog. (P1 CP:278917)

  • You can now specify unit delimiter in reports as needed while generating the report.See Report Parameters Dialog Box (P2 CP:140982)

  • Added a new Permission Group option to the Reference 3D Model Properties Dialog. This new option allows you to assign a permission group to the attached Reference 3D models. The permission group controls the modification operations on Reference 3D objects by different users. (P2 CP: 173162)

  • You can now attach Reference 3D models at both the host and the satellite locations. See Reference 3D Model Command. (P2 CP:193130)

  • You can now manage duplicate ProgID's by selecting the library you want to use for a specific ProgID in the Update Custom Symbol Configuration Dialog Box. (P2 CP:212862)

  • Added instructions for regenerating the Reports database with linked servers. See Regenerate the reports database with linked SQL servers and Regenerate the reports database with linked Oracle servers. (P2 CP:229440)

  • Added new information about database upgrade performance.See Upgrade the catalog and model databases. (P2 CP:239169)

  • The Upgrade Version Command is now enhanced to upgrade multiple databases simultaneously with more usability, better performance, and a better interface. (P2 CP:249049)

  • You can now register (attach) point cloud models at the satellite location. See Point Cloud Model Properties Dialog. (P2 CP:251950)

  • You can now move or rotate the attached point cloud in the Project Management. See Attach a Point Cloud model. (P2 CP:251950)

  • Smart 3D now supports Oracle database servers running on a Linux-based computer for non-Global Workshare installations. You cannot use Linux if you intend to use Global Workshare. (P2 CP:253571)

  • You can now register the point cloud project file using the Point Cloud Properties dialog in Project Management. This helps you to load the point cloud project as the default file directly in Smart 3D while defining the workspace. However, you can choose to load other point cloud projects using the Open Project or Import Point Cloud Data commands in the CloudWorx menu bar. This saves lot of time for multiple users working on a common project. The software no longer prompt you for point cloud source while defining the workspace in Smart 3D. (P2 CP:256000)

  • When you reopen a saved Smart 3D session file that contains the CloudWorx project, then the project file that is saved with the session is opened by default. This is not applicable when you reopen a session file that contains ModelSpace View. (P2 CP:256000)

  • A new utility, Schema Name Validator, allows you to report and update any part class, custom interface, or attribute name that does not conform to the Oracle name length constraints. (P2 CP:257901)

  • Model type (plant, marine, platform, or material handling mode) is now defined when creating the model database and is stored in the model database. In previous versions, the model type (mode) was defined by the catalog database and stored in the site database. Model databases upgraded from previous software versions will maintain their previous site mode setting with that setting now stored in the model database. (P2 CP:261960)

  • Removed the No Action option from the Action To Take column of the Clean Database Dialog. (P2 CP:262183)

  • Added information about database integrity limitations. See Task Limitations When Working in a Global Workshare Environment. (P2 CP:263544)

  • If you run Model Data Reuse and encounter low memory conditions, you must restart Project Management and the Model Data Reuse operation to continue. See Model Data Reuse (MDR) Command. (P2 CP:266052)

  • Documented the new Repair Permission Groups and Duplicate Part Numbers custom commands. See Custom Commands. (P2 CP:269428 and P2 CP:276194)

  • Added recommended practices for Model Data Reuse. See Model Data Reuse (MDR) Command. (P2 CP:270506, P2 CP:270512)

  • Added best practice information for using Delete Optional during Model Data Reuse and Model Data Transform operations. (P2 CP:270710)

  • Updated the Compare Catalogs step in the Model Data Reuse wizard. The View & Map dialog box now displays the results of the comparison between source catalog items and destination catalog items, including pipe spec elements, short code elements, option code values, and schema elements. See Model Data Reuse Wizard: Compare Catalogs. (P2 CP:271154, P2 CP:271156, P2 CP:275499, P2 CP:276402)

  • Updated note information addressing replicated databases in Upgrade the Databases and Regenerate Reports section. See Upgrade Version Command. (P2 CP:272892)

  • Information related to PDS Model Reference has been removed. See Attach external 3D data to the model. (P2 CP:276780)

  • Added the Repair Duplicate Permission Group ID custom command. See Custom Commands. (P2 CP:278891)

  • Added a new custom command, Placing Supports from XLS. See Custom Commands. (P2 CP:284643)

  • Updated throughout with new tree view icons. (P2 CP:288300)

  • Added a new option, Improve database load time, for Reference 3D create and update operations. See Update multiple Reference 3D projects and New Reference 3D Model Dialog. (P2 CP:302652)

  • A new utility, Configure Project Settings for Drawings Utility, allows you to specify the issue and revision mode for all drawings in a project. (P3 CP:94887)

  • Smart 3D now upgrades custom symbol configurations before it upgrades catalogs. See Upgrade Version Command. (P3 CP:261875)

  • The Move by Relative Distance option in the Point Cloud Model Properties Dialog has been replaced with Target Point. (P3 CP:277501)

  • Added note to Model Data Reuse section addressing Oracle tablespace extensions.See Model Data Reuse (MDR) Command.(P4 CP:259621)

  • Added notes to Database Conversion Wizard section regarding running database integrity before running database conversion. (P4 CP:261977)

  • Synchronize Model with Catalog does not automatically synchronize Reference 3D models, but you can choose to synchronize the model when you update the Reference 3D project. See Synchronize Model with Catalog Command and Update multiple Reference 3D projects. (P4 CP:266148)

  • Added information about the Model Data Transform wizard operations. See Model Data Transform (MDT) Command. (P4 CP:266150)
