Snapshots

Snapshots are a new capability available only in Large Design Review. You can take snapshots of locations that you want to return to.

A snapshot captures the state of the graphics area, similar to a custom named view, and saves it in a Snap feature on the DisplayManager tab DisplayManager_tab.gif of the Manager Pane. Unlike a custom named view, if some parts are hidden when you take a snapshot, those parts are always hidden when you return to that snapshot.

Click Take Snapshot tool_Take_Snapshot_View.gif or View > Lights and Cameras > Take Snapshot, or press Alt + Spacebar.

You can:
  • Right-click a Snap feature and add a comment (140 characters maximum)
  • Double-click a Snap feature to return to that view of the assembly
  • Click-pause-click a Snap feature to rename it
  • Hover over a Snap feature to see the comments and a preview
