Add "Preset explode and Edit structure" in Illustrate when he is linked to Windchill in MPMLink

Hi,

 

1. I work as CAD Manager in an Watchmaker industry


2. We are using Illustrate 8.1 and MPMLink 12.0.2.0 on Windchill 12.0.2.3


3. These features are available in Illustrate Standalone and they are really helpfull for the users. They are not available when Illustrate is linked to Windchill and used in MPMLink to make illustrations on the operations of a process plan.

4. The main use case for the feature "preset explode" is that the guys who are creating the illustrations are not designers and haven't Creo Parametric, in this way it will be very helpfull to retrieve the exploded states defined in CREO Parametric.

For the second point, I'm aware that the structure is controlled by the struture of the process plan and the allocated parts, but like in the previous point the illustrations guys are not the users who create the process plan.

5. It will be a real time saving for the users
