PROCESS AND SYSTEM FOR RENDERING AN OBJECT IN A VIEW USING A PRODUCT LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT DATABASE

摘要

The invention aims at the process of rendering an object view using a PLM database. The database includes modeled objects and relationships between the modeled objects. The modeled objects are related to values of a set of attributes, which values may be stored in a database or calculated based on relationships relating to the modeled objects. The process includes displaying a view of a set of modeled objects to a user, receiving a selection of attributes by the user, querying a database for a modeled object to be rendered, related to the modeled object, Providing a value of the selected attribute, and rendering the modeled object in the view according to the value of the provided attribute. In addition, the user can select a value of the attribute, and rendering will only be performed on the object whose value (s) match the selected value.;Product Lifecycle Management, Rendering
