The Web Client uses a 3rd party solution (Brava Enterprise from OpenText) to provide a zero footprint browser-only view and redlining capability. Users trying to view and markup 3rd dgn, gwg, pdf, office or other 3rd party files very occasionally experience a red error message box in the viewer not being able to display a specific file. The 3rd party solution pre-renders the actual file on the server into a web viewable format and stores that rendition inside a rendition cache (folder structure).
Before this improvement, you'd have to be an administrator with direct access to the server to manually find and clean the viewing cache by deleting files and folders.
With this feature, you can directly trigger this cleaning from the Web Client. You can now quickly help yourself in case you encounter a viewing error, instead of contacting system administrator.
-
This cleaning should only be invoked if users experience viewing issues in the Brava Viewer. Viewing files in Hexagon's WebGL viewer is not affected by this.
