Enable support between "selective instances unshare" in CEDM and Creo Illustrate

Enable support between "selective instances unshare" in CEDM and Creo Illustrate

Use case is the following:

after user uses the command "unshare" on "selective instances" inside CEDM (Creo Elements / Direct Modeling) and he reopens the c3di illustration, he has to redo figures because for Illustrate the children are all new objects.

For Modeling instead they are always the same.

Video explanation:

 

I have just created a case but the response was:

Spoiler
R&D gave an update about this use case ,as Direct Modeling’s “UnShare” process is generating different eBOM instance ids.
Without consistent ids it is impossible to link between the old and the updated structures.
This workflow is not supported by Creo illustrate .

Hello, today we discovered that models that have "selective instances" create always different pvz, also without any change.

When a group contains a selective instance his "source_file_name" attribute in pvz has always a new value (it seems a random number).

Then for us the bus is bigger than before because we have to reillustrate all these parts everytime we change something else in our models.

It's very annoying.
