Our 3D CAD supplier models have been moved to 3Dfindit.com, the new visual search engine for 3D CAD, CAE & BIM models.

The menuvisibilty configuration file controls the visibility of menu items, buttons and context menu commands.
You can create different modes. Each mode contains a specific amount of actions = UI elements.
There are two levels by default:
Specification of various modes
In the block [COMMON] the different modes are defined.
This are Beginner and Professional by default.[47]
[COMMON] MODE_BEGINNER=Beginner MODE_PROFESSIONAL=Professional
Each mode (key) stated in the block [Common] requires a same-named block, which contains the desired actions.
[MODE_BEGINNER] ViewPart=true View2D=true ExtrasPARTbom=true etc. [MODE_PROFESSIONAL] ViewPart=true View2D=true ExtrasPARTbom=true etc.
The explanations use the terms "key name" and "action name" synonymously.
The value range of keys is true (element visible) or false (element hidden).
If a key is missing in the list, then the state of visibility is "false".
The selection of the desired mode happens in PARTdataManager under Extras menu -> Select mode. The default mode is stated in $CADENAS_DEFAULTUSER/partsolu.cfg -> block [TWEAKMENU] -> key "PARTdataManager_Mode" or "PARTproject_Mode". The respective menu item is displayed, if the key ModePreferences is set on true in the respective block.
If you select mode Beginner you will see a lower amount of functions (menu items, buttons, context menu commands) in the user interface.
The selected mode shows a checkmark.
If ERP is available then the display of UI elements can be designed role-dependent (in addition).
In order to avoid redundant settings the declaration of the elements happens in two levels:
At first all needed roles are assigned to types.
[ROLES] DUMMY=TYP_A LOC1=TYP_B LOC2=TYP_A LOC3=TYP_A etc.
In a second step the desired actions (elements) are stated in the respective [TYP_] block.
[TYP_A] MODE_BEGINNER=false MODE_PROFESSIONAL=false Bugreport_Clicked=true din962=true ShowHideAvoidPartsButton=true prefcatalogs=true StartupPageClicked=true List view of parameters=true Table view of parameters=true etc.
[TYP_B] MODE_BEGINNER=false MODE_PROFESSIONAL=false Bugreport_Clicked=true din962=true ShowHideAvoidPartsButton=true prefcatalogs=true StartupPageClicked=true List view of parameters=true Table view of parameters=true etc.
If there is information in two different, valid blocks, then the information is merged.
