Creating, Copying, and Deleting Loads

Creating a viewpoint load enables you to define the load options beyond the standard set of options that are available in default loads (see Default and Defined Loads).

You must have Owner or Metadata Manager permission on a dimension in order to create, copy, or delete a viewpoint load for that dimension.

Creating a Load

  1. Inspect the dimension that you want to create a load for.
  2. On the Loads tab, click Create.
  3. In the Viewpoint drop down menu, select the viewpoint that you want to load to, and then enter a name and a description and click Create.

    Note:

    You can select from all active viewpoints for the dimension that are not time-labeled.

Editing a Load

After you create a load, you can edit it to specify the load options that you want to use. See Editing Loads.

Copying a Load

  1. On the Loads tab in the dimension inspector, click the Actions menu action menu icon, and then select Copy.

  2. Optional: Edit the name, description, application, dimension, view, or viewpoint for the copied load, and then click Copy.

    The copied load is created and displayed in the inspector.

Deleting a Load

To delete a load, on the Loads tab in the dimension inspector, click the Actions menu action menu icon, select Delete, and then click Yes to confirm.

Note:

Deleting a load will not delete the history associated with that load (see Reviewing Viewpoint Load History).
