How to display attribute details along with CAD type filter, Preview in Creo

As you know, when we open a CAD file in Creo, we have the option to preview the file in a separate window. This window shows the File type menu, file name details and preview.

I'm wondering if it's possible to display the attribute details on the same window as the preview. This would make it easier to see the attribute details without having to switch windows.

Example: File open… Browse Manikin Library .. No need to open
On a second preview window, it shows few attribute details along with the assembly's name.

It displays Gender, Country and percentile

I would appreciate any help you can provide with this.

Hi, thank you so much for your response. We are not using the Windchill PLM.

If we Creo is on standalone mode, Can we achieve this functionality? for ".prt" and ".asm" files with customization.

Any suggestion, what needs to be considered.

If you're using Windchill, you can access workspace views while opening files in Creo. If your workspace view has columns to display your desired attributes, they will appear when you open files this way.

If you're not using Windchill, you could potentially use the Open Subset command and customize the columns within that screen. This is a little more work but is probably doable. One downside to this option is that you have to open an assembly, the command doesn't work for parts.
