Creating a Data Utility to Display an IBA Value Instead of an OOTB Value, Globally?
Hi Everyone,
I've created a data utility and have called in the Type and Attribute Manager to overwrite the UI for one of the out of the box variables on a custom document type. This works when the variable is referenced in one of the document layout pages, however, the attribute I want to modify also appears in the item identification information section of the document and in various other tables throughout Windchill. From my understanding, the item identification isn't defined in the type and attribute manager, but rather through the display identification service.
Is it possible to create another data utility/service to automatically overwrite this ootb attribute (only in this document type) globally, rather than having to register the data utility to the attribute in the Layout window and creating other services which implement different interfaces, such as the DisplayIdentification interface?
Does anyone have any insights or experience creating a global overwrite utility within Windchill? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
