Inspect3D Documentation ToolBar

Introduction

The tool bar originally appears at the top left hand side of the page. However, its sections can be moved by selecting the set of vertical dots on the left side of the section and dragging it into a new position. If you right click on the tool bar a dropdown menu will appear that will allow you to hide any of the tool bar sections.

Buttons

Clear Workspace

The Clear Workspace button will clear all the graphs, queries and library paths.

Load Workspace

The Load Workspace button allows you to open a workspace that you had previously created and saved. This includes any Library Queries, Data Queries, and Plots that have been created.

• The file being loaded must be in the .i3d format and must have been saved in Inspect3D, a text file saved using any other program (such as Visual3D) cannot be loaded.
• The 'Save Workspace' button updates the loaded workspace
• Use the 'Save Workspace As' if you don't want to update the original workspace

Save Workspace As

The Save Workspace As button allows you to save your workspace, which includes any Library Queries, Data Queries, and Plots that have been created. They may be opened again in the future and allow you to continue working on you project from where you had left off. The Save Workspace As button is used the first time a new workspace is saved the a browser window will open allowing you to specify the workspace name and where to save it.

Save Workspace

Once the active workplace has been saved using the Save Workspace As button, clicking the Save Workspace button will simply update the saved file and maintain the previously designated file name and location.

• Load Group Def & Compute Groups: loads a Q3D file containing group definitions and query the open library
• Save Group Definitions: saves a Q3D file containing all open group definitions
• Clear Group Definitions: clears current group definitions
• Reload Library: re-query the CMO Library (this should be done if you modified the CMO Library in Visual3D)
  • Note: Current inclusions/exclusions done in Inspect3D would be overwritten
