General on the subject of classification
Via classifications, alternative folder structures are created which then will be displayed in PARTdataManager.
Into these folder structures, (new) projects can be added. Details on the classification process can be found under Section 5.13.5, “ Add projects to classification ”.
All installed classifications are listed under the menu item Classification. For each classification there are two rows. The first one for the determination of classes, the second one for the determination of attributes.
First click on the search button under Classification. -> The dialog box Classification is opened. Assign the desired classes. Then click on the related search button under Attributes. -> The dialog box Class variables is opened. Assign the desired attributes. Details on this can be found under Section 5.13.5, “ Add projects to classification ”.
For semi-automatic classifying, especially within the Classification (CNS) you have the function Batch classification of projects available.
Details on this can be found under Section 5.13.6, “ Batch classification of projects ”.
