Ability to associate a drawing to a WTPart as an owner/contributing image/image

Ability to associate a drawing to a WTPart as an owner/contributing image/image

We have a case where converted schematic line drawings have been created with a WTPart association. These WTParts are also used to get an auto-generated drawing number. By default Windchill 9.1 allows an association of  contributing content or content. These options do not allow direct linking of the viewable to the WTPart.

As the owner / contributing image / image are links dedicated to 3D models (cause they participate to the build of the WTPart structure and not only push the viewable)

May be they should create a new type of link for drawings, which propagate the viewable to the WTPart ...

anyway, from the WTPart info page, in Vizualisation sub tab, you're able to see the viewable of the drawing linked by a content link. The limitation is that if you open it, in Pview, there's no parameters from the WTPart.

I've heard that an enhancement of CreoView is in work to open API and be able to add parameters programmatically
