Build a Data Card Deck
Create a deck of data cards for faster referencing of properties and vault status information.
Data cards are gathered from the open model or from a selection set and placed into a card deck. A home card is added as summary card of the card deck contents.
Build a Data Card Deck
Enable the data cards feature by selecting Data Cards from the Autodesk Vault ribbon.
Select a model or selection set within inventor.
Click the >> button at the bottom of the data card to expand the data card from fingertip view to full view.
On the data card deck control toolbar, click the Get drop-down arrow and select either Get CAD Selection or Get Entire Model.
The data is retrieved from the vault. Depending on the size of the deck being created, the updates may take some time. You can continue working until all property values have been retrieved.
When all the data is retrieved, the home card appears and the navigation controls on the data card deck toolbar are activated.
