Working With the Structure Graphic 

Use

The structure graphic is divided into two sections:

Within these sections you can select the material components you want to assign to a selected operation in the maintenance task list.

Depending on the size of the structure, the display area displays all or a section of the structure. This structure is made up of a series of nodes on different levels. You can hide or explode these levels. To do this, choose the menu bar sequence Extras ® Explode/Hide.

The navigation area displays the entire structure. Within the navigation area is a colored frame which indicates the section of the structure currently displayed in the display area. By moving this frame with the mouse, you can display another section of the structure in the display area.

Procedure

There are four methods of selecting nodes in the structure graphic:

Selecting All Nodes

To select all the nodes in the structure graphic, use the menu bar sequence Edit ® Select ® Select all.

Selecting One Node Only
