This section is used to attempt resource matching to elements in the project.
When attempting to resource matching for products, filenames will be compared with product code.
When attempting to resource matching for materials, filenames will be compared with material code instead.
Match Preview Images to Products
To find and match previews images to all products.
Match Material Files to Materials
To find and match material/swatch files to all materials.
Match Models to Products
To find and match models to all products. This function will consider also the files name with prefix "3-" files to be used as models.
If cm3D and cmSym models are both found for the same product, users are given a choice to choose the mapping by selection or by batch.
Match Materials to Options
To find and match materials to all options.
Match Preview Images to Scheme Design Presets
To find and match rendered scheme preview images to all scheme presets.
By default, the automatic resource matching tool will search the resource directory appropriate to the project element, as specified by the Resource Directories section in the Project tab.
Alternatively, an external directory can be searched for these resources. To specify such a directory, select the Search External Directory option, and specify the location in the field to the right of it.
For the project to utilize the externally matched files, they will need to exist within the project’s resource directories. If an external location is specified and the tool finds matches, those resources will be copied to the required locations. If the Overwrite Existing Files option is specified, this will overwrite files with matching file names, if they exist.
By default, when searching for resources at the specified location, the automatic resource matching tool will search sub-directories for matches. To disable this functionality, de-select the Search Sub-Directories option.
