After you create a gallery of smart images, you can use the gallery images repeatedly in your work instructions without the need to reimport the images.
Log into the FactoryLogix Office client application and open a process definition.
Double-click an operation to open it for editing.
Double-click the step or activity you want to add a smart image to.
On the Visual Aid Tools tab, select Insert > Insert Smart Image.
Drag a rectangle on the canvas.
Use the options in the Smart Image Properties dialog to locate the smart image you want to use for a work instruction:
BOM Line Item - Displays the BOM for the process definition. Select the ellipses (...), locate and select the desired BOM line item, then select OK.
Reference Designator - Use the drop-down to select the desired reference designator, then select OK.
Part Library - Displays the Part Library window. Select the ellipses (...), locate and select the desired part number, then select OK.
Batch Attribute Name - Select the desired batch attribute from the drop-down, then select OK. (In this case, the batch attribute is treated like a part number.)
After you make a selection for a smart image, you are returned to the Smart Image Properties dialog.
Important
Batch attribute names and values used for smart images cannot contain hyphens.
Use the Smart Picture Title drop-down to select the desired smart image title, then select OK.
The smart image is displayed in the Visual Aid Tools window. If a smart image doesn't exist for your selection, you will see an image placeholder with the words No Image Found:To make a different selection when no image is found, right-click the smart image placeholder, make a new selection in the Smart Image Properties dialog, select an image title from the Smart Picture Title drop-down, then select OK.
(Optional) Repeat this procedure to add more smart images to your active work instructions.
