New Interactive Design Viewer
WEBcnx 2017 introduces a new interactive Design Viewer allowing the user to pan and zoom around the design, measure various design elements, toggle drawing palette visibility and display artwork. Hints about how to use each of the tools is displayed in the Viewer Footer.
Directory
The all new Directory in WEBcnx 2017 is the central hub for access to all people and places within the software. Allowing users to manage all aspects of customers; documents, templates, contacts, etc. as well as administer users and user groups. Additionally, the sites browser allows users to view information about the various manufacturing sites within the Enterprise, if a multi-site environment is configured.
My Customers, Users, User Groups and Sites
The former Customer Dashboard allowed you to drag and drop customers on to a "My Customers" widget. This process has been simplified and extended to include the other types of people and places on the Directory. "My" content allows you to pin frequently used items to drop-down lists to make it quicker and easier to select the items you use the most.
