Project Files List

The Files pane will display a list of files used in the project. For geometry, files are listed from three sources:

  • agdb and scdoc files used in the project schematic

  • Imported CAD files used in those agdb files

  • CAD files used in the project schematic

Note that files used in the agdb files may not appear until the agdb has been opened in DesignModeler. A typical project file list may look like this:

Files registered by DesignModeler will display the generic gray geometry icon.

The Type field will identify files registered by the modeling applications as "Geometry File".

Missing files will appear in red text. They can be recovered using the context menu option to repair the file. After repairing a missing geometry file, you will see the properties of the geometry cell change to reflect the new file chosen. A missing file will not necessarily affect the state of the geometry cell itself, that is, the cell’s state can indicate Up-To-Date while its source file is missing.
