7.7.1.2.4. The area attributes in detail

7.7.1.2.4.2. Text (SYS_FaceAttributeText)

Text attributes can be used to attach additional information (e.g. special features of the surface) to the model. (See also above.)

HTML text attribute on area [HTML text attribute on face]:

To create a text attribute on an area, enter the desired text in the HTML text attribute on area [HTML text attribute on face] field. It is displayed immediately after creation in PARTdesigner and then also in PARTsolutions and PARTcommunity.

HTML text attribute on face

More complex examples:

Image with absolute link:

<img src=“$CADENAS_DATA/pics/mypic.jpg“>

Image with link to server plus depending on variable value (e.g. ARTICLENUMBER)

<img src="http://someserver/getImage?ARTNR=$ARITKELNUMMER.">

In addition, the article number shall be entered below the image.

<BR>$ARTIKELNUMMER.

Note

Encoding

By default, a distinction is automatically made internally between link and text. To be absolutely sure that the processing works properly, you can specify the parameter encoding with the corresponding value:

For links: encoding=percent

Example:

<img src="http://someserver/getImage?ARTNR=$ARITKELNUMMER(encoding=percent).">

For text: encoding=HTML
Example:
```
<BR>$ARTIKELNUMMER(encoding=HTML).
```

Text fields in the 3D view connected to variables
Clickable variable (individual part, configuration) [Clickable variable (single part, configuration)] / Clickable variable (assembly table)
You can define clickable text fields on component surfaces for the 3D view and link these to variables.
Variable description text and the current value of the variable are automatically transferred to the text field displayed in the 3D view.

3D view in PARTdesigner

Do the following:
1. Enter the desired text in PARTdesigner in the Area attributes [Face attributes] docking window, enter the desired text in the HTML text attribute to area [HTML text attribute on face] field.
2. Define the connected variable.
  There are 2 variants:
  - Clickable variable (single part, configuration)
  - Clickable variable (assembly table)
  This enables you to differentiate what is to be shown in the single part/configuration mode and what is to be shown in the Assembly-Table mode.
  On the one hand they may be different variables, but on the other hand they may hide the label: If you only assign one variable for the single part but not for the Assembly-Table, then the entire label will be invisible in the Assembly-Table mode.

In PARTdataManager a list box opens when you click on the label field to determine the desired table value.
