Attaching drawing files and required layers or levels to records

Each CAD drawing must be attached to a TRIRIGA® record. The top-level mapping that is specified in the selected application definition determines the type of record that you can attach the drawing to. The application definition also specifies the layers or levels that are required to be attached to the drawing record.

About this task

If you need to create the record to attach to, you can create the record in the TRIRIGA environment from TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher.

Procedure

  1. Open the CAD drawing to attach, and select IBM TRIRIGA > Attach > Smart Attach.
  2. Select the application definition, drawing units, and capital project to use for the attachment.
  3. Optional: Create a child or parent record.
  4. Select the record to attach the drawing information to.
  5. To attach the required drawing layers or levels, expand the Attach Drawing Layers or the Attach Design File Levels area and select the layer or level names.
  6. If you are not attaching any other information, click OK.
