When you mouse over a user name in the SolidWorks Enterprise PDM user interface, a pop-up window appears. This window provides user details and links to help you communicate with other users in your company.
You can display the user window by hovering over the user name in the Checked Out By column in:
- Vault file lists in Windows Explorer, including the Contains and Where Used tabs
- The Enterprise PDM task pane in SolidWorks
- Dialog boxes such as Check in, Check out, and Get
In the History dialog box, you can display the user window by mousing over the User column or User field for a selected event.
The user window that appears contains links to the Enterprise PDM email editor, as well as Microsoft® Office Communicator or Microsoft Lync®, and Microsoft-enabled Voice over IP (VoIP) if you have these products installed. Other details users add to their profiles, such as an image, phone numbers, Web links, and presence statements, are also available.
