You
can set a timer to automatically dismiss some common dialog boxes that often appear when
opening assemblies or assembly drawings. When the opening operation is complete, the
Open Summary dialog box displays a list of the
dismissed dialog boxes.
The timer lets the opening operation continue without you clicking OK in the dialog boxes. This is useful when you open large assemblies or large assembly drawings that take considerable time to open.
To activate the timer:
-
Click .
- Select Dismiss reference/update dialog boxes when opening assemblies after: n seconds.
You can change the number of seconds.
- Click OK.
The timer is added to these dialog boxes:
- Rebuild this document
- Missing Toolbox configuration
(with or without auto-create option)
- Open External Referenced Documents
- Unable to locate file
- File has a non-matching internal ID
- Resolve components in lightweight drawings if units
differ
- Update drawings sheets if out of date
Now when a large assembly or large assembly drawing
takes considerable time to open, the timer automatically dismisses the
dialog boxes. When the opening operation is complete, the Open
Summary dialog box displays a list of the dismissed dialog
boxes. Viewing the Open Summary report can help you
diagnose problems in the assembly or drawing. The report only applies to
assemblies or assembly drawings that you open from disk.
