Copy Design Pre-Check Results

Copy Design Pre-Check Results

I find it useful that Copy Design performs a pre-check and returns a screen listing any issues.  However I find it completely useless that users have to take a screen shot of this, close it and then refer back to the screen shot to fix these issues.

 

The Copy design pre-check results window should be interactive to the point where users could select the problematic components and apply actions to them directly within this window.  Actions such as selecting a new copy to location or renaming files.

 

I have attached an image to expand on this idea.

Client Auto refresh before operations such as copy design/rename. So currently if you check-in components then do a copy design for instance you will get a problem accessing the file error so you have to close copy design refresh then copy again. It can be very easy to forget to refresh before doing these operations and you can set up a complex copy which you can not save the configuration of close then refresh then start all over again. The fact that it does not auto refresh before these operations is just bad coding.

Pre-check for duplicate file names whitin the copy design function.

When you change the name of two files to the same name (mostly accedentally),

The copy desing tool starts copiyng files and only notices this when copying the second file with the same name.

Now you are stuck with a half copied assembly, the you have to close copy design, delete this half copied assembly and start over.

When doing a complex copy design, it is easy to mistype or misselect things and for it to fail. When you have spent a lot of time working your way through all the file names and file locations to be told your copy design has failed, it is not a great feeling! It would be really helpful if there was a way of Vault saying your design has failed but here, go back to the copy design screen, edit the necessary and run it again to make it work.
