Locations Category

To carry out various commands, such as View File or Edit File from the object pane of the integration query, PLM must locally download the files that you want to view or edit in Autodesk Inventor.

In the Locations category, you can specify the folders in which PLM must locally download the files that you want to view or edit in Autodesk Inventor. If required, you can specify the same folder for both viewing and editing. If you do so, the Disable PLM Commands on “View in Integration” command will not work. For further information, see Viewing files in the integration and Editing files in the integration.

The edit and view directory feature allows you to view and edit the selected directory of Autodesk Inventor file after it has been copied to the PLM vault during the check-in procedure.

The available options are:

  • Edit Location

    Select a file using the browse option to edit the directory.

  • View Location

    Select the browse option to view directory.

Note: The edit and view locations must be in the current inventor "workspace".
Note: You can also select the Use Inventor Project Location check box to set the Inventor project location as Edit and/or View directory.
