What is an object?
An object in VEERUM is a bounding box that encloses a component, structure, or concept that exists within or is associated with a model or workspace. The object bounding box can be associated with specific parts or equipment, concepts, safety issues, training steps, groups of items, areas, or any other identified component. Selecting an object in a model provides access to the object information and associated properties.

How to get an object?
1 – Open Search Results in the left pane; 2 – Click the Search button in the top menu;

3 – All objects within the workscope are listed.

Search options include:

4 – Search by specifying the Value in the search bar:

What is the difference between placed and unplaced objects?
The Unplaced Objects type is for ingesting objects without geometry or a set location. An unplaced object can be placed after it is captured or it can remain unplaced. With an unplaced object you can add new or updated object information (e.g. tag information), and later match the object to an existing workscope or model.

To place the unplaced object, select the object and place it as a cube or linear object. For Cube objects, move the bounding box to the appropriate location and adjust the size. If the bounding box for a Cube object is imported with the manufacturer's dimensions, do not adjust the size. For Linear objects, draw the polyline by adding a series of line segments. After placing an object, you can edit the location, orientation, and dimensions as needed.
