Other Preferences tab (My Inventor Preferences)
Use this tab to set the preferences for:
- Controlling the PLM objects of a Inventor file that can be attached to the business process.
- Downloading large structures.
- Linking to Item.
- Troubleshooting.
| Preferences | Description |
|---|---|
| Attached to Business Process | The PLM objects of an Inventor file that can be attached to the business process.
Possible values:
|
| Attach related Models/Drawings | If this check box is selected, the PLM objects(items, documents) of the Models or
Drawings associated with the Inventor file are attached to the business process. Note: The objects are
attached based on the value set in the Attached to
Business Process field.
|
| Attach all related objects | If this check box is selected, the PLM objects (items, documents) of all the
components in CAD structure, of an Inventor file are attached to the business
process. Note: The
objects are attached based on the value set in the Attached to Business Process field.
|
| Allow edit Workflow | If this check box is selected, Workflow from CAD application can be modified. |
| Action for objects locked by Business Process | The action that must be taken if one or more objects are locked by another
business process. Possible values:
|
| Attach Draft Objects Only | If this check box is selected, only the draft objects (items/documents) are attached to the business process. |
| Attach all Items | If this check box is selected, all the items linked to the document are
considered for dispatch. Note: If this check box
is cleared only the default item is considered for dispatch.

| Preferences | Description |
|---|---|
| Resolve missing Content Center files during download | If this check box is selected, the missing file links during the download are
resolved and the Content Center library files are relinked from the standard library
location. Note: Normally assembly files use Content Center
library files from the standard library location. Sometimes users copy files from
Content Center library files to a non-library location and use the files for an
assembly that is saved in PLM. Consequently, when this file is downloaded from PLM,
the file has broken references.
|
| Skip replace references of component files During Download | If this check box is selected, file links are not replaced during the download. |
| Update CAD structure which are out of date with Drivers | If this check box is selected, all the downloaded files in the structure are
updated automatically and saved to display the latest changes in design after the
files are downloaded. Note: If this check box is cleared, only
the root file is updated and saved.
|
| Skip Save of root file after Download | If this check box is selected, the files downloaded from PLM to local machine, are not saved. This improves the application performance. |
| Defer automatic updates to drawings during Download | If this check box is selected, the drawing files are not updated automatically when the files are downloaded from PLM. |
| Skip CAD and PLM structure comparison | If this check box is selected, PLM and CAD structure comparison is skipped during download. However, only the attribute values are compared. |
| Do not process library files during download | If this check box is selected, Content Center files must not be processed during the download. |
| Open assembly in last active level of detail representation | If this check box is selected, the assembly is downloaded in the last active LOD
(Level of Detail) representation. Note: An assembly can be opened
in Inventor, in different LOD (Level of Detail) representations (All Components
Suppressed/ All Parts Suppressed etc.) to reduce memory consumption.
