Making spatial searches

A spatial search, also referred to as a cacheless search, allows you to enter search criteria as numerical values or by dragging a search box in the viewer to find those objects that are within these spatial boundaries. Teamcenter displays the results of the search as a list of matching occurrences (structure lines). Selecting an entry in the list highlights the occurrence in the structure tree pane and in the embedded viewer. You can refine spatial searches with other attribute searches. You must complete certain installation and configuration steps before you can run spatial searches.
