Enable late loading of product views

You can late loading for product views preference. Late loading reduces the time taken for loading many product views by initially displaying them as thumbnails, with the full view loading only when opened. You can also define how partially loaded product views are handled when saving session or PLMXML files. Users can select multiple product views in the product view gallery and send them to the Lifecycle Viewer or stand-alone Lifecycle Visualization. The product views open one at a time and any configuration of the original structure is retained. As an administrator, you can enable late loading of product views, by using the Vis_PV_AllowLateLoading site preference. Late loading is useful to reduce the time it takes to load a large number of product views at once in stand-alone Lifecycle Visualization. A late loaded product view appears as a thumbnail on the 3D Snapshots page, but the entire product view is not loaded until you fully open the product view by applying the 3D snapshot. When late loading is enabled, you can set how partially loaded product views are handled when you save a session file or a PLMXML file. You do this by setting the Vis_PV_LateLoadSaveOp site preference.
