Characteristics overview


You are able to manage the characteristics of a test plan in the characteristics overview. The characteristics of the currently active test plan are displayed as a list. A test plan is activated when you open an associated drawing sheet.


Set-up

In the toolbar (1) above the characteristics list (2), you will see functional control elements for numbering, filtering and sorting, as well as the number of characteristics in the characteristics list. The sum Σ of characteristics (3) refers to the part of the test plan that is currently being displayed in the characteristics list, not to the entire test plan.
