Duplicate model search using built in pro/e config...

[ptc-3165095]

Is anyone out there using the shape indexing or duplicate modelsearchfunction in modelcheck? We have CADseek but I was wondering if PTC has imporved this concept since I last looked at it back in WF2 when it was called shape indexing. It did not really work that well back then. I am on WF4 and PDMlink 9.1 m020.

If you're back again someday Wayne, I'm setting this up now on our site.  Creo 2 M120, WC 10.1.  I'll post results here.

Jim,

Did you get this working?

Hello Steve,

Thanks for the reminder.  I did NOT get it to work with Creo 2 M120, WC 10.1 M010.  But PTC Support reported to me they did with Creo 3.0 M040, Windchill 10.2 M030.

I came across this after I posted.  It was fixed in M140.  I am working on M150 but it still won't work fully.  I get the Search button but it doesn't return anything.  I have a call into PTC about it.

Are you on WC 10.2 M030?  I wonder if the two must both be fixed to a certain level.

I wonder if the answer you will receive is.. you must move to WC 10.2?
