means that all hyperlinks will be drawn.
4. Check the In 3D check box if you want to draw the hyperlinks icons in 3D in the main view. They then
float in 3D space just in front of their attachment points to the items. If this box is unchecked, then all
hyperlink icons are drawn in 2D over the top of the all geometry.
5. Enter the maximum number of icons to draw in the main view in the Max Icons box.
6. Hyperlinks can be drawn with leader lines (arrows) pointing to the attachment point on the item that
the hyperlink is attached to. Enter the X- and Y- distance in Leader Offset for the number of pixels to
the right and up that these leader lines will use.
7. Each hyperlink is a member of a category. This enables you to easily manage sets of hyperlinks. Use
the Visible check box to switch a category on or off in the main view. Some categories also have
comments associated with them. Use the Hide Icons Without Comments check box, if available, to
do exactly that - only draw hyperlinks that have a comment attached to it, so that you can see any
areas of issue in the model. See Section 16.1, “ Commenting ” for more information on comments.
8. Use the Image and Text radio buttons for each category to tell JetStream how to draw that category
of hyperlinks. If text is drawn rather than the icon, the hyperlinks description is used as a tooltip style
text box in the main view instead of an icon.
9. Click OK to set the options or Cancel to exit the dialog without setting them.
16.5. Smart Tags
Smart tags pop up information on the item hovered over by the cursor in a tooltip style window, without
having to select the item itself. The smart tag will disappear after a few seconds. This is a useful way to
quickly get information about an item in the main navigation window when navigation has ceased. The
default information shown is the name and type of the item, but you can define which properties to show
using the smart tags options.
Note
If the item hovered over doesn't have the property requested, smart tags will search up the
selection tree for a parent that does, so maximising the useful information you get.
To turn on smart tags
