Protecting libraries from unauthorized edits.
Access to libraries is restricted using a username/password that must be entered before a library file can be opened for editing. Only authorized users are allowed to open a file. There are three levels of access:
- None – you can list the data within the library but cannot access the details. This is the status of any libraries that have not been purchased.
- Read Only – you can use the library files but cannot change them or add new data. All library files are initially opened Read Only.
- Full Access – you can use, copy, edit, or create new library files and add or edit the users.
All Autodesk Vehicle Tracking libraries are Read Only.
Access to Library Objects in the Pool
Once in the Pool, library objects may be edited. Vehicle data that has been used to create a Vehicle Tracking swept path cannot be edited. Other library data that has been used to create Vehicle Tracking entities can be edited, though there may be access restrictions.
Note: If you make a copy of a library object within the same library file, the name of the copy is prefixed with the words ‘Copy of’ to distinguish it from the original object.
