Defines properties associated with the 3D model that you are modifying.
Model Name
Specifies a model name.
Description
Specifies a description of the model.
Model Type
Specifies the authoring tool used to create a referenced model. The following options are available:
S3D
Use this option for a 3D model generated from Smart 3D in .zvf and .xml format.
PDMS
Use this option for a Reference 3D model converted to .zvf and .drv from PDMS files in .rvm and .att formats.
PDS
Use this option for a 3D model generated from PDS as legacy SPR data in .drv and .dgn graphics converted to .zvf or published PDS data in .zvf and .xml format. Each option uses a different set of mapping files.
Generic
Use this option for all Reference 3D models with data files in the standard .drv format. Generic schema and mapping files might be required using the delivered Generate Mapping Tool utility. See Use the GenerateMapping tool.
Intergraph Smart® Interop Publisher
Use this option for all Reference 3D models with data files generated from the Intergraph Smart® Interop Publisher application. This option reads .zvf and .mdb2 files created from Intergraph Smart® Interop Publisher to persist graphic data, mapped property data, and relationships. If you have added new classes, interfaces, and properties using the customized mapping files from Intergraph Smart® Interop Publisher, you must create the CustomR3DSchema.xls file, and place it in the Reference3DComponents subfolder of the SharedContent folder. See Custom Schema and Mapping Files.
Graphic_Only
Use this option for all Reference 3D models that do not have data files.
CADWorx
Use this option for all reference 3D models with data files in the .dwg format generated from CADWorx, and then published by SmartPlant Review Publisher. Sample schema and mapping files are delivered with Smart 3D.
Interference Detection
Specifies whether the Reference 3D model participates in interference detection.
Reference 3D models that contain tessellated data take a significant amount of time
for interference checking to process. For better performance, do not include these
models in interference detection.
File Path
Specifies the path or location of the Reference 3D folder. You can create and organize subfolders for additional levels of filtering and level/layer control.
The software only supports .zvf graphic files with corresponding data in .xml or
.drv files.
Permission Group
Specifies object level modifications to Reference 3D models such as excluding and including an element in Smart 3D, and changing construction properties. However, the defined model permissions control new Reference 3D model attachment, detachment, and update operations. If you do not assign a permission group to a model, the model permissions control the operations on Reference 3D model objects. The menu list displays the permission groups that have been created for the model.
