Conclude Component Creation

A new component is created when the user selects Create at the bottom of the window.

Provided that all the necessary data has been entered a new item will appear in both the database and the display.

Clicking Back to Main Tasks returns the user to the Furniture, Fittings and Fixtures - Element Tasks window.

When a component has been successfully created the create window will switch to being a modification window. The modification window will allow the created object to have any of its attribute, specification, position or orientation information updated in the same way as when the user was creating the object originally. When in modification mode any position and orientation changes will be updated in real time to allow the user to see what effect the changes will make in the model.

When a change has been made, the accept and discard functions become active:

In order to confirm that the changes that have been made are valid the user has to select Accept Changes.

If the user does not wish to proceed with the changes made, selecting Discard Changes will reset the object to its previous state.
