Project Context and Folder Context

In the HELiOS menu for Parts, Assemblies or Drawings contains various functions for a working with Projects and Folders in the two function groups Project context and Folder context

The available functions are as follows:

The Project Explorer known from the HELiOS Desktop is called up separately via this button

When you call this function, the project data input mask (Enter project) will be displayed.

If a user-specific project is active (i.e. if you have not chosen "Project-independent"), this project will be shown beneath the Project input field at the top of the dialogue. The new project will then be assigned to the currently chosen project as its sub-project. Of course, you can also select a different project as superordinate project, or choose "Project-independent".

To save the new project, click either Apply (saves the data while the window remains open) or OK (saves the data and closes the window).

The further procedure depends on the settings specified in the HELiOS Options (at Project and Folder structures) of the HELiOS Desktop.

The Folder Explorer known from the HELiOS Desktop is called up separately via this button.

When you call this function, the folder data input mask (Enter folder) will be displayed.

If a user-specific folder is active (i.e. if you have not chosen "Folder-independent"), this folder will be shown beneath the Folder name input field at the top of the dialogue. The new folder will then be assigned to the currently chosen project as its sub-folder. Of course, you can also select a different project as superordinate folder, or choose "Folder-independent".

To save the new folder, click either Apply (saves the data while the window remains open) or OK (saves the data and closes the window).

The further procedure depends on the settings specified in the HELiOS Options (at Project and Folder structures) of the HELiOS Desktop.
