Hi All,   we would like to export a document difference form in a certain format. Using the web GUI we are able to easily print the created difference document but this comes with a few issues I hope to resolve:   1. Unlike the difference document within the rich client (non-web) it seems you cannot choose fields you want to compare besides the text field. But to compare changes regarding our references (traces) is absolutely necessary. 2. Within the diff. document changes are shown in a certain format. New text is green, erased text is red and crossed out. We would like to implement some changes here. So for instance change the color green to blue. We were able to change the color of headings from blue to black by making changes to a CSS-File "ALM 2009" on the server but unfortunately we were not able to change the (color scheme) settings for the difference text.    Every help is highly welcomed 🙂   Thanks upfront and great day to all readers of this lit

Dear community,   I am wondering what you all are using as an editor for the dashboards. To us, the dashboard would be the main page for all users to start their session on, and it would be lovely to see it having a nice and snappy look.   I'm seeing a lot of interesting constructions in the dashboard editor, where columns are added with mini blank pictures in there in order to get the correct spacing. Also, in some of the out-of-the-box dashboards I saw some panels with "shadows" around them, but these are also partially composed of pictures. See my screenshot of these included pictures.     I am wondering how other users are designing their dashboards with in Integrity, or do you focus most on your HTML reports? What are your experiences? I'd love to get in touch and share thoughts on this.   Best regards, Nils  

Hello Community,the test result metrics are calculated via the field "Test Objective Pass Count" and a special undocumented (?) function "resultcountbysession()" that looks via an query backed relationship on all "Completed Test Sessions" (query) to count the test results (for "pass", "fail", "other").For example, the computation from the ALM solution for passed tests is:isEmpty(resultcountbysession(Tests,byDocument(true,true),0,"Completed Test Sessions","pass"),0)# The number of test cases with a pass verdict type last result from completed test sessions.  Only results for this specific test objective (not related test objectives) are included.My problem is now to split up the test results by the Category of the Tests items, e.g. "System Test", "Software Test", etc.But how to add the condition for the category in this computation?I assume that I have to add fields per category like "Test Objective <category> Pass Count" and so on, and add the "Total <category> Pass Co

Is it possible to connect PTC Integrity with IBM Rational Products like Rhapsody, Change or Synergy?

Hello,   Creation of build sandbox with a checkpoint revision using the following syntax fails with a message stating that "development path and project options are mutually exclusive with new project syntax" si createsandbox -P<project path> -projectRevision=1.43   Integrity Client version is 11   The command works fine without the projectRevision option.   What is the new syntax for specifying checkpoint version ?   Thanks, Satish K  

Is there any document gives details on "Beans > Methods > Parameters > use" in single pdf or excel?   The "Event Trigger Java Documentation" gives the details but its difficult to find the beans and methods from requirement. if we have any simplified document where we can get all these details, it will be very helpful.   For example, we can find something like following:   Bean Method Parameter use Example special remark               Else, PDF of all the details from the html details would also very helpful. Thanks

I am working on a tool using the Integrity Java API. I am using JavaFX for the UI. I have a TableView and right now, to bind an ObservableList, I am converting a WorkItem to a different object type that I have cleverly named WorkItem2. What I am doing is in the below code snippet (the real class uses more fields). This allows me to use an ObservableList<WorkItem2> and then use normal data binding with JavaFX.   My question is, is there a way to do data binding with WorkItems directly? I would like to avoid having to create properties for every field if possible.   public class WorkItem2 { private SimpleStringProperty id; private SimpleStringProperty project; private SimpleStringProperty summary; public WorkItem2(WorkItem source) { id = new SimpleStringProperty(source.getId()); Iterator fields = source.getFields(); while (fields.hasNext()) { Field field = (Field) fields.next(); String name = field.getName(); switch (name) { case "Project": pr

Hi, I want to copy the data of a field A to field B for a big number of items. Both fields are part of the same item. The batch copy action should be performed for all items that are found for a certain query. Can this be done be a command line option? Can you help me on that, since I am not familiar with command line options yet. Thanks!   Timo

Hello everyone, we changed or document workflow. Now I want to delete some of the labels which were automatically set by trigger "MKS.ALM: Segment State". For each state defined in MKS.RQ.BaselineLabelStates a label in the form "Baseline: Published" is set, when document comes into that state.   I tried to deleted such a label, but I get the following error message: MKS124803: Internal error detected: Exception was: java.lang.NullPointerException   Is it possible to delete these label afterwards?   Thanks Timo

We have a Type named "Test Equipment" which has a unique field named "Asset Pulse ID".  When a Test Equipment is copied we want a trigger to look for any duplicates of the Asset Pulse ID field and then change the state of the original item to Inactive.  I'm a newbie to PTC Integrity and would appreciate any examples to help me set this up.  We are using PTC Integrity version 10.9.   Thanks, Terry

Hi all, i used the GateWay tool wizard to Export & Import Excel files, it works wonderful. And if i going to use the command line to Import new item:   Gateway import --user=*** --hostname=*** --port=*** --config="XXXX" --silent --file="file-path-and-name"  also works fine. The Problem is just if i want to use the command line to update an item (i can Import it through the wizard without error😞 Gateway import --user=*** --hostname=*** --port=*** --config="XXXX" --silent --file="file-path-and-name" itemID  then i get the error:   12/12/18 10:21 AM -- [Gateway-App] GATEWAY(0): "import" command abnormally terminated: MKS10001: Uncaught Exception in MKS Gateway Command 12/12/18 10:21 AM -- [Gateway-App] GATEWAY(0): com.mks.gateway.tool.exception.GatewayException java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException at com.mks.gateway.tool.ui.ContentsView.getSelection(ContentsView.java:253) at com.mks.gateway.tool.ui.GatewayImportCommand.selectConfigurationStep(GatewayImportComman

Hi All,   I´d like to export history information (audit trail) of a document. To be more precise the information present in the tab "history" within the item details of each ID within a document.  One obstacle would be gathering the history-tab information of all IDs. An issue that I assume we can overcome by configuring a report - given that this information is accessible and exportable at all(?).   Did any of you ever exported this kind of information? I already tried using the web GUI attempting to export the history information there - unfortunately without  success so far.   Best regards and big thanks upfront to whoever will be able to help me here  Daniel

Hi all,   in SI ("Configuration Management") you can see in the project view in the column "member revision" the revision number of the members contained in a project. In the helpfile (http://<servername>:<port>/integrity110_hc/index.jspx?id=client_proj_opening_projects.mif-2&action=show) you can read that this column also shows the revision of contained subprojects:   But this is not the case in our system (ILM 11.0.506):   As you can see in the project history, the selected subproject has revisions up to 1.12, but in the column is nothing to see. I also don't remember that this would have been the case in previous versions of Integrity. I'm asking here if anyone else sees the revision of a subproject in the project view and we have a misconfiguration somewhere in our system?   Thanks, Jens  

Hi all, I'm a novice Integrity admin. I tried to use the "Edit Item in Word" feature, but it says the template is not defined. In the admin client I found a place to specify the template for an item type. But I don't know how to create a Word template .dotx file. Can anyone give an example? For example, it would help me a lot if there is a template to let you view ID and Text in a specification document, and let you edit the Text field and publish it.

Hello, I'm searching a possibility to transfer an MS Excel table fragment automatically via Integrity im-command into a Text-Field (Attribute) of an Integrity Workflow & Document item. Currently I'm trying to get a solution using the MS Windows-Clipboard, that means as first step copying automatically the MS Excel table fragment into the MS Windows-Clipboard. For the second step I need an im-command or other possibility to transfer the content of the MS Windows-Clipboard automatically to the destination (Text-Field of a PTC Integrity Workflow & Document item).   Is there any possibility to fix this issue, maybe also via a different solution?   Additional I'm interested in a possibility to transfer formatted text (for instance bold text or specific font) into a Text-Field (Attribute) of an Integrity Workflow & Document item.   Best Regards Stephan  

Hi there, is it possible to have a field that is like a pick field (drop down menu), but the content of the pick list is "dynamic". Means: a user can add some text (either directly in the field or somewhere else) and the pick list gets a new entry. So, the pick list is not pre-defined, but adds up every time someone adds a text.   Regards Timo

I am trying to create a burn down chart of user stories from a specific query.  I cannot find a way to accomplish this.  I tried a trend chart but that eliminates the query field (not sure why).  I also tried a filed trend but it shows each user story individually.  Any ideas?

Hi there,   Is it possible to export a dashboard previously made to XML? Once I have made adjustments I would like to import it back. This will also be used when moving dashboards from our development to our production environment.
