How to customize to generate a warning message when modifying a released part

Hello, Is there a way to generate a popup warning message such as "Are you sure to modify a released part?" When a user try to modify a part at released state? When clicking Yes, it allows user to continue modifying, if No, Nothing happens.

 

Thanks !

Hello,

 

Not sure this can help you, but you can try the "onClick" tag that triggers a JavaScript method when the user launch the action.

I'm not sure you will be able to check the LC state of the object though.

You didn't mention what kind of action you want to handle and where this action would be performed from (Creo embedded browser, WGM, WEB browser) of even is this is a multiple-objects action ?

It is an action such as "check out" or "Check out and Edit" on Web Browser.

If file permissions (ACLs) are set right, they will not be able to check a released part back into Windchill. The user needs to be aware of their part states. They should not be able to check-out a released file.

There may be some third-party tool from, maybe Fishbowl, that can prevent them from modifying a released part in the first place.
