3.1.11.14. Line sorting in PARTdataManager

If in PARTdataManager variants are added to the characteristic attribute table via Add dataset to link database (variant) , then a correct sorting of lines is not always ensured.

However you can determine the scheme of sorting for the currently opened project in a special dialog. So a manual editing of the PRJTABLE is not necessary.

Hereto proceed as follows:

  1. Select the line under which the new line shall be inserted.

    [Note] Note

    This is the default insertion point.

  2. Click on the icon Add dataset to link database (variant).

    ->The Create variant dialog box opens.

  3. At the desired variable enter the needed value and confirm with Ok.

    -> The dialog box new ident-no. opens.

    Enter the missing data or select it in the list field and confirm with Ok.

    [Note] Note

    Depending on administrative presettings the dialog may be slightly different.

  4. Optionally (depending on administrative presettings)

    After a variant has been set the dialog box Change sorting order? is displayed. The dialog appears as long as in the respective project the sorting has been explicitly determined.

    • Do you want to explicitly define the sorting for the respective project? - > Yes

      -> The dialog box Change sorting order is opened. See next point. You can call up the dialog box via the button Set the sorting order for currently opened project anytime.

    • Do you want to explicitly define the sorting for the respective project? - > No

      The variant is sorted below the line where it has been created.

  5. Click on the icon Set the sorting order for currently opened project.

    -> The dialog box Change sorting order opens.

    Under New sorting order enter the variables comma separated, with which the sorting shall be performed.

    Confirm with Change sorting order. -> The new sorting is immediately performed.
