New Project Label in the DesignStream System
DesignStream Interface
When starting to design a new project using Vertex BD, retrieve a project label from the DesignStream system, or add a new label to the system. The project is first saved to the local archive. You can check-in the project to the DesignStream system when you close the project.
- Select > New Project. The New Project dialog box opens.
- Click the Select button. The House Model/Project Search dialog box opens.
- Select project Type:
- Project - A customer project that has been confirmed.
- Proposal - A customer project that has not yet been confirmed.
- House Model - A standard house model that can be used in customer projects.
- Building Group - A building group project that can be used in other projects.
- Do either of the following:
- Retrieve an existing id from the DesignStream system. You can fill the search criteria in one or more text fields, or leave the fields empty. You can shorten a search term with an asterisk (*).
- Customer
- Description
- Author
Select the project and click OK.
- Add a new id to the DesignStream system.
Select the check box New DS project, and click OK. A project of the selected type is created in the DesignStream system, and an id is automatically generated for it.
- Retrieve an existing id from the DesignStream system. You can fill the search criteria in one or more text fields, or leave the fields empty. You can shorten a search term with an asterisk (*).

Note:
