Copy a View representation to a Level of Detail representation

You can copy a View representation to a Level of Detail representation to remove invisible components from memory by suppressing them. Use these steps to create a Level of Detail from a View representation.

  1. In the assembly browser, click Representations then View to expand, right-click the appropriate View representation and select Copy to Level of Detail from the context menu.
  2. A new Level of Detail is created which duplicates the name and component visibility status from the View representation.
  3. Expand the Level of Detail node, highlight the new Level of Detail and choose Activate to activate the LOD representation that unloads the invisible components from memory.
