Cross-probing of Problem Solving PMI in Active Workspace embedded in NX

When working on a Problem Solving process in Active Workspace embedded in NX, you can cross-probe between the PMI in the graphics window in NX, the Model-Based Definition (MBD) Navigator in NX, and the Inspection Definitions added as problem items, affected items, and reference items in the Problem Description tab of a Problem Solving process. With cross-probing, you can select an object in one application, resulting in the corresponding object being selected in other applications. When you select an Inspection Definition, its corresponding dimension is highlighted in the graphics window, which allows you to identify the dimension related to the Inspection Definition.

If you select a single or multiple Inspection Definitions in the Problem Solving process, the corresponding PMI objects are highlighted in the graphics window and the MBD Navigator. Also, if you select a single or multiple PMI objects in the graphics window or MBD Navigator, the corresponding Inspection Definitions are highlighted in the Problem Solving process. If you clear any selections, the corresponding selections are also cleared.
