Configuring Text Group Extensions for Categories

Scenario

If the standard text group customization is not possible (for example, different extension modules require changes to text groups at the same library level), do the workflow described here.

For each new category, you must add and configure:

• Text group extension for full text.
  (In the example, one text group extension to represent the High Risk Gas category. It will extend the category text group, TxG_Category.)
• Text group extension for short text.
  (In the example, one text group extension to represent the HRG category short text. It will extend the category text group, TxG_CategoryShort.)
• As many text group extensions as required to create the propagation summary status data. Specifically, each propagation summary status will include the name of the category and one of the disciplines.
  (In the example, seven text group extensions have been created for the High Risk Gas category. They will extend the Propagation Summary Status Text Group, TxG_PropagationSummaryStatus).

Prerequisites

• You are trained and authorized to work with system libraries at the target customization level of the events library. For example, L3-Region or L4-Project.
• Desigo CC is configured with a customized events library that includes a Texts block. If not, see Creating a Customized Events Library and/or Adding Blocks to a Library.
• System Manager is in Engineering mode.
• System Browser is in Management View.
