Configuring CAD Viewer
You can configure the CAD Viewer's components and their appearance for Web Configuration modules, such as Publisher.
| In CAD Viewer, end users automatically get the option to download and print CAD Viewer drawings as PDF file. Space mapping in the floor drawings is supported. The PDF will have landscape orientation and a 'fit to page' size. |
Adding a CAD viewer web definition:
1. Go to Self-Service modules > CAD Viewer.
2. On the action panel, click Add.
3. Enter a Code and Description for the CAD Viewer.
| Configuring only one CAD viewer is supported per self-service form. Configuring more CAD viewers on one page will interfere with each other. |
A CAD Viewer definition is added.
4. Add translations for the navigation name.
5. On the various CAD Viewer text and tooltip blocks, set the Print field labels field to Yes, if you want to display the field labels in CAD Viewer. This field is only visible if fields are present on the block.
6. Fill in the other fields on the CAD Viewer blocks.
◦ CAD Viewer layout: modify the default values according to your specifications. For field information, refer to
CAD viewer fields. On the
Actions >
Action properties tab, specify if you want to display the
Show constructional data toggle button on the drawing. If you want to show the constructional data by default, just set the
Default value field to
Yes.
◦ Space tooltip: configure a tooltip for spaces in the CAD drawing. If users hover their mouse over a drawing, the selected settings of space, space usage, person and inventory fields are displayed as a tooltip.
◦ Space text: add the fields you want to show in the Space text block. For example, the Space number.
◦ Inventory tooltip: add fields (inventory) that you want to show in the inventory tooltip. For example, Asset.
◦ Workspace text: add the fields you want to show in the Workspace text block. For example, the Workspace number.
◦ Workspace tooltip: add fields (workspaces) that you want to show in the workspace tooltip. For example, Number and Name.
Your CAD Viewer definition is complete.
