Viewing files in the file manager as a list (Production Mapping)

The product library file manager provides you with different ways to view the files that are associated with each level of the product library. Any type of file can be copied into the product library and associated with a solution, product class, series, product, instance, or area of interest.

You can view the files associated with other items in the product library using the list view. The list view displays the files associated with other items in the product library using smaller icons. The file name appears to the right of the icon.
