Input

Calls a dialogue window for transfer of the CAD structure to the HELiOS database.

Use the Batch import function to import a multitude of files from a directory to HELiOS with a few mouse clicks.

Opens a dialogue window for the deriving of the model structure (only available in the HELiOS Assembly Ribbon).

Use this function to create a verifiable change to a document based on the CAD model structure.

This function allows you to apply a traceable change to the opened document, e.g. in the respective Ribbon context of the active part or assembly.

Saves the opened document in the same way as the New in HELiOS function and creates a new article master and document master which will be linked subsequently.

When taking over standard parts from the Inventor Content Center with this function, Family and Member IDs will be written onto the article master. Standard part recognition is only guaranteed if the document/article link exists, but will not work for a purely document-based working method.

Saves the opened document in HELiOS and creates a new document master, which is then linked with an existing article master.

When you call the function, the article search mask will be displayed, enabling you to choose an article. After this, the New in HELIOS function is called, with saves the drawing document and the linked article (write-protected, i.e. it cannot be deselected here) together to the HELiOS database.

If third party documents are referenced together with a drawing, they will also be offered for transfer as linked documents to the database.

This procedure is recommended if, for example, parts or assemblies that already exist in the HELiOS database, are to be used in further drawings. Instead of saving those again (and thus twice) via New in HELiOS, you have the option to manually link existing articles when you enter the drawing.

This function saves the active model drawing as a new document and links it to the new index of an existing article.

First the article search mask opens, allowing you to select the corresponding article. For this article, the Create index mask is called up, so that you can create a new index of the article.

Then the data transfer dialogue New in HELiOS opens. If the model drawing was saved as a document using this one, the document is then linked to the previously created new article index.

Saves the opened document in HELiOS and creates a new document master.

With the function call Link new article, you can create a new article (via HELiOS article input) to link it to the open document.

Link existing article calls the HELiOS article search function to link, via the search function, the active document to an article already existing in the HELiOS database.

Standard parts or iParts/iAssemblies are always linked in a configuration-specific way, regular parts are assigned default article masters.

Saves the opened (model) drawing in HELiOS and creates a new document master. The (model) drawing will be linked to the article of the model.

(only for active drawings)

Links the drawing document to the article of the part from the drawing view. For this to happen, the existence of a corresponding drawing view is required.
