J-Link: Set PTC Common Name when creating a drawing from template

[sbots]

I am trying to create an application that will allow me to create a drawing from template. I have most everything figured out except for the value of PTC Common Name. From what I can tell there is no way to set the PTC Common Name value on the creation of the drawing and once the drawing is created it can not be modified because it is controlled by PDM Link. Does anyone have any suggestions or workarounds?

Thank you in advance.

Scott -

I'm currently addressing this same issue in one of my applications.
Mine is written in C, however, and there is a Pro/Toolkit function
to address this (ProMdlCommonnameSet()).

I believe the JLink method you want is pfcModel.Model.SetCommonName.
Check the "Models" page of the JLink user guide.
