The Object Details Flyout overlays more information on a selected Model Item, allowing users to dive into its details without leaving their current context. Use the flyout to streamline workflow, move seamlessly between objects, and maintain an efficient, intuitive navigation experience throughout your OrbusInfinity experience.

Open Flyout

1. Start from any OrbusInfinity View that can be found in Model Content, Public Views, My Views or Search Results.
2. Click on a Model Item name: its Object Details opens in a flyout panel.

Use the Flyout

• The Object Details Flyout opens for the first time as an overlay.
• Use the Full screen button to use the full width of your screen to display Object information.
• Select Exit full screen to get back to the default view. 

The system remembers your last setting and uses the responsive UI - it matches your screen resolution to present data in the best way.

This section walks you through each tab of the Object Details Flyout for more information.

Details

The Details tab is split in 2 parts:

• On the left, default and custom Attributes are displayed within collapsible sections for clarity of navigation and easy consumption. From here, you can update the Object attribute information by selecting Edit.
  • Attributes that are hidden from your role via attribute permissions are not displayed in the Object Details Flyout.

  • Attributes that are set to read-only for your role remain non-editable even when you switch to edit mode.

    

• On the right, the Overview Panel, where you can also find properties of your object, like OrbusInfinity ID, last modified date, and usage of the Object across the repository. You can choose to show and hide this Overview Pane when needed. The system remembers your last setup.

Counterpart

Counterpart is used to enrich the description of an Object using a Document that represents it further. Within the Object Details Flyout, you can review and modify information about the linked Document, preview and navigate to the linked Document.

You can add a Counterpart only to the Object when its Object Type allows this. 

1. Open the Object you need and select Edit . In the Counterpart list, select your Document’s storage location—Lucidchart or SharePoint.
2. Select the Document:
   • For Lucidchart Documents, select a Document from the Lucid app, Document Type, and then select Link.
   • For Documents registered in SharePoint, in the Document Browser dialog box, select the Document you want to link, and then select Use Selected Document.
3. Save the changes to the Object.

Once the Document is saved, you can preview the Counterpart.

For more information, see Manage Document Type Link.

Related

The Related tab shows related Objects and the type of Relationship connecting them to the current Object.

To navigate to more details:

• Select a Model Item's name from this list to open its own Object Details Flyout.
• Select the icon to go back to the previously open Model Item.

Use the Add button to add a new Relationship to connect to a related Object.

When you select the related Model Item, you will be able to Edit or Delete it.

Where Used

The Where Used Tab provides you with a comprehensive view of an object's context and usage across your Draw-type drawings and Visio documents. It is designed to help you quickly understand where an object appears and how it is connected, without the need to open each drawing individually.

History

The History Tab shows in a table, the different versions of the model item in a chronological sequence of change. Versions are identified by their Number, Creation Date and Creation User, as well as Comment on the applied change where needed. 

The table displayed the attributes of the Object and highlight changes made in each version.

Feedback

The Feedback Tab provides an annotation section to enable users to engage and share informal comments and feedbacks on a model item. 

The version history is not updated when you add or remove feedback. You can remove only your own feedback.

Timeline

The Timeline Tab shows model item changes visualized in the time frame.

Manage Object / Relationship

From the Object Details Flyout, you can copy, reuse, move, delete, and open in Legacy View. For more information about these actions, see Edit Object and Relationships.
