Display and add to contributions from others

00:04

Let's look at the traces that our team has already added.

00:07

The easiest way to open a trace is to simply click on it.

00:10

Let's click on mec room changes

00:12

the trace will highlight in the palette and the trace editor

00:15

will be displayed zoomed into the area of the trace objects.

00:19

Here we see that our teammate, Chris wants to expand the mechanical room

00:23

just like us. He added a note and a cloud

00:25

but notice that he's also drawn in the proposed change,

00:29

perhaps it's been agreed to and it's your job to make the change.

00:32

Let's send the trace to the back, making the drawing active.

00:36

We'll do that by clicking on the trace toggle icon in the toolbar.

00:39

You'll see that the trace objects are now faded

00:42

at this point. You can go ahead and extend the wall using your favorite editing tools

00:47

you could draw on top of the proposed new wall, but you can't snap to it.

00:51

But as a reference, it's nice to have,

00:53

let's look at Chris's other

00:55

choice.

00:56

You can only have one trace shown at a time.

00:58

So let's close this one by clicking on the X in the toolbar

01:02

click on the trace named door edition.

01:05

This time we're going to add to or contribute to his trace.

01:09

What I will add will be new as I can't edit chris' trace.

01:13

I'll put in a piece of text below his

01:15

saying that the lead architect has rejected his idea.

01:18

When I add my contribution and close and reopen the trace.

01:22

You'll see that my user icon overlaps with Chris's.

01:25

This is your indication that multiple people have contributed to that trace.

01:30

You can see who all those people are by clicking on the toolbars user icon,

01:35

you can even toggle their contribution on or off by clicking on the icon on the left.

01:40

However, you aren't able to toggle your own.

01:43

And since you're the owner of your own contributions,

01:46

you'll also get a menu item that lets you

01:47

remove your contributions in the right click trace menu.

01:51

Let's close the door edition trace.
