When I revise a generic part thru the gui, all the instances revise! Perfect!
But when i try to revise an object using the API, only the generic is revised. The preferences do not follow.
How do i revise all the instances programmatically?
or do i just have to create a collection of all instances and revise one at a time?
Trust me, I understand your pain.
I've been googling about this today, and here's what I found. By changing to this option in wtcad.ini (on Windchill server): allow.selective.for.families=true, you should be able to revise instances seperately.
I've just sent this to our Windchill administrator and I'm eager to see if it works.
