Populate the Modify Design System

When a SYSGRP is highlighted in the System Explorer single or multiple elements from the list of Database Items can be added to that SYSGRP.

In the Database Items pane highlight the required elements (use the CTRL key while left clicking to make multiple selections) and then right click and select Add Selected Element(s) to this System.

The Main Systems and Owning Systems tabs will update to show the items have been added to a system.

The list of System Members will also update to reflect the addition.

An element can be in more than one system. An element can directly reference a system, and at the same time inherit a system from an element higher up in the Design hierarchy.

The Main Systems tab shows systems directly referenced by the selected element and the Owning Systems tab shows all systems associated with the selected element, including those inherited from elements higher in the Design hierarchy.

Items can be removed from the system by right clicking and selecting Remove Element from this System in the Main Systems tab.

If an item is the member of more than one system then it is possible to choose which system is to be the primary.

In the Main Systems tab highlight an entry that does not currently have a Status value of Primary and right click and select Make this System Primary.

From the Systems members pane single or multiple elements can be removed from the currently selected system.

Highlight an entry (use the CTRL key while left clicking to make multiple selections) and then right click and select Remove Selected Element(s) from this System.

To change the model data attributes of a system member, highlight an entry and then enter a Description and Function in the appropriate fields of the Attributes pane.

Click Apply Attributes to commit the change.

The Database Items and Systems Members lists can be exported to Excel by right-clicking in either list and selecting Export to Excel. Both lists can be printed by right-clicking and selecting Print Preview to open the Print Preview utility.
