Link a document to a model element
An element link is a web address attached to one element of the model, for example the manual for a valve or the data sheet for a pump. Anyone who opens the element can follow the link. Links open in a new tab, and the document stays where it is kept: Matrise does not store or check it.
Add link shows at every access level, but only Master can save a link. Other levels see Not permitted.
Add a link
- Enter a scan and click the element. The Properties panel opens.
- Click Add link.
- Type a short label, for example "Warranty" or "Operating manual", and click Next.
- Paste the web address of the document and click Save.
The link appears under the element's properties. In the scan, a marker shows that the element has a link.
