Index Model Families

The Index Model Families enables you to investigate the families in use within models in your project. This task works in conjunction with the Index Families task, which must be run in advance. It looks at all families in use and updates the content metrics database to indicate the usage of those families. The resulting information is then made available on the Metrics Content page.

Task Server

Optional setting in the task tray to send open times.

<add key="SendFileOpenTimes" value="True" />

Clarity Client
