Handling work request file attachments for eBrowser models and markups
The Attachments tab in the Work Request Manager includes specific functionality for handling eBrowser model files (.ebmx, .ebm) and markup files (.ebx).
-
When Browsing work requests:
- You can open an .ebmx or .ebm attachment to view the 3D model in eBrowser.
- You can open an .ebx attachment to view the 3D model with markups in eBrowser.
-
When Creating new work requests or Replying to work requests:
- Click Create to create a new eBrowser model attachment from objects you select in the model.
- Click Add to attach an existing eBrowser model or markup file to the work request. When adding a markup file, you are prompted to select an already attached eBrowser model to link the markup.
- If eBrowser is installed on your computer, click Add Markup to open the selected model attachment in eBrowser and add markups to the model.
Note: Like other work request attachments, eBrowser files are stored in the COS server's document repository and are available to all target users. However, large volumes of attachment data can significantly increase COS backup size and slow down the backup process.
