In the Schema Editor, open the tool map schemas that you want to view. For more information, see Open a Tool Map Schema.
-
If you have checked the SmartPlant schema CMF file out of the Desktop Client, launched the Schema Editor, synchronized the tool map schema and the tool metadata, and are working with the tool's metadata adapter to define mapping, the authoring tool map schema is already open in the Schema Editor.
-
Before you can open a tool map schema, you must open a schema file.
You can also open a file configuration or session file that contains the SmartPlant schema and the tool map schema files that you want to view.
-
The tool map schema file for each authoring tool is installed with the authoring tool. For more information about authoring tool map files and their locations, see your authoring tool documentation.
