Advantages of model tasks


When the model task is created, the current view is automatically saved in the model. The view can be called up later via the model task.
Model tasks are also saved in BCF format, which enables the exchange of model tasks with other programs such as Solibri or Vrex.

Create model task


To create a model task, the desired model must first be opened in the model viewer.
Opening models in the Model Viewer is described in the following article: Model viewer

In the first step, you can navigate to a view in the model that is to be saved in the model task.
Once a suitable view has been selected, you can click on Create model task in the navigation bar.



Model tasks have the same content as tasks. For more information on the tasks, see the following article: Tasks
You can now enter the information for the model task and then click on Save & assign.

Display model tasks in the model
All model tasks of the loaded models can be displayed via the task symbol. In the model, all Model tasks and their Excerpts are displayed via markers at their recording location. If you move the mouse pointer over a task marker, details of the respective task appear. At the same time, a list of all loaded tasks and sections appears on the right-hand side of the screen. The quick orientation and improved accessibility provided by the markers and detailed display make navigation in the models easier and connect the tasks with the model.



Click on the task marker to display the following roles:
