For a good User Experience, in general, a Cognite Specific Icon should serve the same purpose in all Cognite programs. Navigation and functionality should be similar across modules. Cognite should adopt a consistent philosophy in how you manage this and converge all of your applications for consistency:
1) When you search for MBD1070, CDF finds MBD-1070, but Maintain does not find any asset.
2) In CDF, when you pan to another asset in the 3D model and single click , you can select the next asset over (MBD-1270) and open the meta data. In Maintain, if you select another asset you highlight the shape only. You do not get any data or even identification of the asset.
3) When you select an integrated asset (PW-424-A) in CDF you get a section of pipe and 6 valves. In Maintain, you are able to select and highlight a single valve or shape.
4) Maintain has no access to photogrammetry or laser scans as layers in the 3Dmodel.
5) You are able to take measurements in both Maintain and CDF modules, but the measuring tools in CDF are much more robust (polylines, polygons, areas, volumes). Maintain has straight line distance only. In CDF you can change the units from metric to English, in Maintain distance is in mm only.
6) CDF allows slicing in all three planes. Maintain allows slicing in the vertical plane only.
7) In canvas, if you add a 3D view, you cannot use any of the 3Dmodelling tools, such as measurements.
8) The icon for adding layers in CDF search changes the marker legend in Maintain
9) An icon with a question mark in CDF shows Navigation guidance, while an exclamation point shows the same information in Maintain.
