Search for Drawings

You can search for drawings stored in the DLM across all projects that you are associated with.

To search for drawings:

  1. On the header bar, click Activity Zone.
  2. In the Search Activity Zone field at the top, enter Drawings Search.
  3. Click the Drawings Search link that displays on the page.
  4. On the search window, use the Search pane on the left to enter the criteria that you want to search against.
  5. To add an OR search, click Add 'Or' Search on the toolbar.
    When you add an OR search, the system returns results that match both sets of criteria. This is useful if you want to search for records using multiple values for selected fields. For example, you can search for records that have different statuses, or linked to different projects.
  6. Click Run Search.
  7. To view the properties of a particular drawing, click .

You can also search for drawings using Drawing Mode in the Information Zone and from the Documents tab on project and enquiry records. When using Drawing Mode, if you use the DLM to manage and control your drawing files, you can click the Show DLM only toggle to display only DLM files.
