Configuring attach preferences
In the attach preferences, you can specify the display of records in the attach windows and the insert windows. For Smart Attach uploads of child records, you can specify whether to overwrite the values that are in TRIRIGA® records. You can use default values or values from a mappable drawing layer to overwrite the records. You can also enable the show prefix and show suffix functions in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window. When enabled, you can specify a prefix or suffix value to add to the uploaded drawing item values.
About this task
For the Upload preferences, you can specify whether the Smart Attach upload process overwrites existing TRIRIGA record values with the values that you specify. If you do not enable the update of existing records, only the area value is overwritten. If you enable the update of existing records, you can specify the data to use for the upload:
- Use drawing data
- Overwrites existing records only if a data value is found on the selected mappable layer.
- Use drawing data or default data
- Always overwrites existing records. Use the data value that is found on the selected mappable layer. If no value is found, use the default value that you specify in the Upload area.
The attach preferences that you set apply across TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher for the current user.
