Multiple file actions typically either begin with or result in multiple files (or multiple copies of the same files). The controls for these actions operate on the selected file(s) in current folder. They are found below the Current Sort dropdown, and above the list of files in a folder. The controls typically displayed for end users are shown below.
Click the checkbox to select or to clear selection of all files in the folder. The checkbox is a toggle. You can also click the checkboxes for individual files to select or clear them.
After selecting the desired file(s), click the Download Checked Files icon. When downloading multiple files, ProjectDox will first produce a .zip file containing the selected files. Prompts will appear in the right panel.
Download Zip File Dialog
Select the destination and download the .zip file, which can then be extracted. A button also presents to delete the zip package out of the temporary folder on the server (recommended).
You can select two files listed in a folder and open them for comparison.
Select
the two files and click the Compare icon 
.
The viewer launches in Compare mode, with side-by-side as the default view.
The sort order in effect for the folder when you selected the two files will determine their position in the viewer – the higher file in the list will display to the left.
The files can be compared in the following modes: overlay, overlay differences, side-by-side, added or deleted information only, and others.
In overlay view, elements unique to the left file display in red, those unique to the right file display in green. Unchanged areas display in gray.
See the viewer online help file for additional information about the compare file and the compare alignment tools.
The Compare feature boasts the following tools:
Overlay - the two files are placed one on top of the other for comparison. Use the slider to change the transparency of the files.
Show Differences - the left file opens overlaid over the right file.
The left file displays in cyan.
The right file displays in red.
Any aspects of the file that are the same will appear in grey.
Side-by-Side - both files are displayed in a split-screen view. Select Left or Right to choose which is the active file that will receive any markups or other changes.
Left Document (Only) - only the file that was first opened displays.
Right Document (Only) - Only the file that was opened for compare is displayed.
Balance - available for Overlay and Overlay Differences to adjust the slider. Moving it to one side or the other will fade out the opposing side's document.
Binder is a supplemental review tool for the plans examiners. It is used as a reference tool to review and check other file pages while marking up the main drawing sheet. Binder is not recommended as the tool to add markups to multiple files. It is recommended that plans examiners open 20 files or less in a Brava binder window on their secondary monitor.
Open
the single file/drawing plan to markup on the main screen. Then, view and
quickly toggle between multiples files in a binder by selecting all the
files to view and clicking the Binder icon
.
The
files will display in a binder view. If
selecting several large files, there may be a delay in publishing time.
Changing
the sort order will clear any selection of files.
The
ProjectDox Utility deletes the files on a scheduled basis. Typically,
it is every 24 hours.
