Article summary

The 12d Model settings that can be configured by your 12d Synergy Administrator are listed below. 

SettingDescription

Default customisation

There are three modes of customisation

  1. Dynamic – This is the default mode.
  2. Use Current Local Customisation 
  3. Download Customisation at 12d Model Startup

Reference check files in 12d Model projects

This check box is selected by default. If selected, 12d Synergy performs a reference check for all standard standalone files within the 12d Model project. It is preferred to deselect or unselect this check box as it slows down your check-in process. 

Check for unbound shares when opening 12d Model projects

If selected, 12d Synergy checks and prompts whether to fix non-12d Synergy shares that are incorrectly referenced to a local workspace instead of a location within 12d Synergy.    

Track multiple devices for 12d Model Sharing

If selected, 12d Synergy checks which device has your 12d Model project checked out, when you use multiple devices to access your 12d Model project

Use share caching

This check box is selected by default. It makes the process of caching faster for optimisation.  

Prefer downloading all shares when opening projects

If selected, when opening a 12d Model project, all its shares are downloaded onto your device ahead of time rather than when 12d Model requests the data.   

Exclude job attributes when checking in managed folders or 12d Model projects

If selected, all rules related to file and file change attributes are ignored. This makes it easy to work with 12d Model projects or managed folders that have a huge number of files.

Maximum path before warning user (set 0 to disable warning)
Enter the maximum length of the path to a 12d Model folder in the 12d Synergy Client application that can be accessed. 
  • If this number is exceeded, then the system will display a message, warning you about the long length of the path. Having a long path may cause some unexpected consequences such as failure of the some data I/O tools or sharing problems. You can continue to access the 12d Model folder despite the long path. 
  • If you enter a 0 for this setting, no warning is displayed irrespective of the length of the path.
