Copying method access groups (modified in an update) - HxGN SDx - HxGN SDx - Reference - Hexagon

The following applies if you are using a version of the software before Update 61. For the latest information, see Access group configuration.

1. Right-click the access group you want to copy and click Copy on the shortcut menu.

2. In the Name box, type a unique name for the new access group.

3. In the Configuration statuses list, select the check box beside each configuration status applicable to the access group.

   

   • Most access groups should be restricted to active configurations. This means that for objects created in a project, shortcut menu methods for the access group will only be available while the project is in the Active state.

   • Access groups controlling management functions may use different statuses. For example, the Merge command should be available on objects in a completed project.

4. Click Finish to copy the new access group.

When an access group is copied, relationships to the following objects are also copied:

• ConfigStatus

• Method

• ClassDef

• ColumnItem

• ColumnSetColumnItem

• EdgeDef

• GraphDef

• RelDef

• ViewDef

  This means that copying an access group is more like cloning it. It does not copy a relationship to any roles.
