File Watermarking

The Powerpack tool for Watermarking gives you options to include your own stamp marking to the drawing workspace, allowing for the customized entry using a series of predefined Watermark symbol templates files, with selection of file type by name.  These in turn can be applied to the File exports under the different formats, commonly PDF, DXF, and DWG.
This process is used in conjunction with the Graitec ‘Add to queue’ process: select file(s) and required format is created from the initial selection of which file receives the watermark. 

Status Change Restriction 

The PowerPack tool for Status Change restriction allows an administrator of the system to apply a dedicated check routine, which ensures that comments are completed at each status change within the lifecycle of the part.
The Change Restriction is applied using a dedicated XML template file selection. Within the file, there is a compliance line to indicate minimum requirement for the Comment field under the Status Changed dialog.
This is utilized when the status of the part is changed without any entry in the Comments field. The popup dialog will inform the user that they have not complete the required change.
