Displaying the part tooling in groups
In the example below, you can see that all machines that we have enabled can be viewed:
We can minimise the tooling status display. Select the group criteria using the Display part toolings in groups combo on the factory • settings • environment settings page to enable the grouping. The grouping options include:
- None – Disables grouping (original behaviour)
- Brand – Implies the technology and manufacturer.
- Technology – Implies the machine technology (laser, punch, panel bender and press brake)
Tooling group icon states are displayed in OK, Warning, Error, Suppressed/Not Available order. So, if any of the tooling solutions in the group is feasible, the group is displayed in a feasible state. Similarly, if any tooling solution is interactively edited, the group background is updated accordingly in green.
The group tooltip displays the grouping criteria in the header followed by the tooling and status list.
Clicking on the group icon displays the group panel.
