Model Selection

The user will be presented with a list of thumbnails to select from. The thumbnail shows the data that will be loaded on selection.  Hovering over a thumbnail will show you the data name and its size. On selection of a data set, your chosen data will then be loaded into the layout. The data is segregated into a number of ways:

Library - Standard components stored in libraries on the TVP are accessible here. To find the component you need, first left click on the library you want to view, then left click the component you wish to load into the layout. You can then use standard manipulation tools to place it where required.

Loaded - Any component that is currently already loaded into a layout will be shown here. Left click the component you wish to load into the layout. You can then use standard manipulation tools to place it where required.

Recent - Any component that has been interacted with since the session has been opened will be shown here. Left click the component you wish to load into the layout. You can then use standard manipulation tools to place it where required.

Scenery - This will show you all components available to you in a project. If you find a component you require and left click it, it will be loaded by default into the layout as "scenery". This means it will load in the location at which it was designed in the source CAD system. If before you left click the component you require you select "Load as component" the part will then be loaded in front of you and you can use the manipulation tools to place it where required.

Scans - Scanned data components available to you are accessed from here. Left click the scanned data set you wish to load into the layout.

Manikin - Standard manikins can be placed in a layout. Select the manikin you require by using left click, it will then appear in your layout and you will be able to place it using the standard manipulation tools. Each manikin has a number of standard poses, to set each one, select the drop down list visible on the manikin and using left click, confirm the pose required.
