AFX Profiles in WINDCHILL

Hello to all,

 

I'm trying to configure AFX to use profiles already uploaded to Windchill. I have created custome profiles that I can use if they are in my library folders, but once I upload them to Windchill, and delete the parts from my library folder, AFX can't find them in Windchill.

 

I have uploaded the profiles to Windchill:

AFX_Profiles_Windchill.png

 

I have "sel_list..txt" pointing at them:

AFX_Profiles_Sel_List.png

 

And when I try to assemble a profile instance in the project using these profiles, I get the error message "An error occurred while loading the model":

AFX_error.png

 

I have tried with the AFX "options.cfg" properties suggested in this article https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS256023:

"FOR_INTRALINK_33 to YES"

"LOAD_COPY_COMPONENTS_FROM_INTRALINK to YES"

But it still doesn't work.

 

What am I doing wrong? Is is possible to use profiles from Windchill? Where can I find a guide to configure AFX to be used with profiles from Windchill?

 

Thank you for your help!

Hi @avillena,

 

Currently for profiles it is not possible to store the template parts for the different profile types in Windchill.

    Thanks for the info!

    Then I will store the complete AFX library in a shared folder for the complete company, and use it from there.
