Edit SmartDesign dialog (flow)

Use the SmartDesign table to quickly enter model contents via the keyboard while the model graphic is created automatically.

The model type, the SmartDesign configuration, and your settings in the Show columns pop-up menu on the table header determine what columns are shown in the table.

The table colors help to distinguish between the object types.

First column

When you edit existing model contents, all objects that belong to the process and are linked to the selected object and to each other directly are shown in the first column. You can insert other objects. The SmartDesign configuration determines which object types are allowed in the first column and how they can occur in succession.

Example: You have selected a function in a model of the EPC type. Starting with this function, all events and functions that have a direct relationship with each other are displayed in the first column. Rule objects (AND rule, OR rule, and XOR rule) divide the model into parts, each of which can be edited as a SmartDesign. You can insert other events and functions into the first column in the table.

More columns

All other columns display objects that have a relationship with the object in the first column. You can insert other objects. The SmartDesign configuration also determines which object types and relationships are allowed.

Example: In a model of the EPC type, the supplementary columns may contain, for example, input data or output documents.

Add object New

Adds a row for a new object below the row in which the cursor is currently located.

Remove object RemoveUp Up

Warning

If you delete an object in the first column, the entire row is deleted and hence also every object that is assigned to the deleted object in other columns.
