Allow multiple values in Creo Parametric parameters (Windchill allows it today).

[kfry]

This is an enhancement request to allow multiple, discreet values to be set for a Creo Parametric parameter.  Today, one a single value can be assigned.

The ability to assign multiple values to a single attribute is already supported by Windchill.  We simply want to take advantage of this by setting them in the CAD model and driving them into Windchill.

Restricted value parameters is already available in Creo Parametric.  See https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/cs51011

@dnordin,

Not the same thing.  Even though Creo can present a list of values to choose from, only one value is selected and passed to Windchill.  @kfry is asking for multiple values to be applied and transferred to Windchill simultaneously, similar to how multi-value attributes already work in Windchill.

Other gaps:

• Windchill attributes can have a suggested value list but Creo parameters only have a restricted value list.
• It would also be nice if the Windchill restricted values list could drive the Creo restricted value list. Having to update the Creo restricted value list stored in the CAD model list is tedious as the restricted list changes.

It'd be nice if more of the functionality could be aligned in this area.
