Using the View Tab
The View tab is used to open and display the contents of a project file in the
Details view (located on the right side of the screen). You can also add lines
and text to a drawing file, save the file with the markups (redlines) as a DWF
file, and put it in the location of your choice on the site or your local computer.
The View tab is available to all project members except those with List or No
Access permission.
■ View in Window button — click to open the file in a new window.
■ Markup button — this button is displayed if you are viewing a .dwg file.
Clicking the button publishes the .dwg to .dwf if necessary, which enables
you to markup the file. The Markup tab opens and then, in the Markups
tab the newly published .dwf file is listed one level below the .dwg. Any
markups associated with that .dwf are listed one level below the .dwf.
■ Xrefs button — this button is displayed if Xrefs are missing and indicates
the number of missing button. Click the button to resolve xrefs.

Using the Discussions Tab
The Discussions tab displays all the discussion threads that are attached to
the selected project file. Project members do not have to be active participants
in discussions to read them. The number of discussion threads for a file is
displayed on the Discussions tab.
You must have Administrator, Edit, or Review permission to participate in
discussion threads (e.g., start or reply to a comment). If you have View
permission, you can only read and print the information contained in
discussion threads. If you have List permission, you are not able to view the
Discussions tab.
