Hello everyone.
Is it possible to control ProductView by a command line.
I am trying to automatize a print out process where an external software will tell Productview to open
drawing number xxx version latest and print it out . The drawing is stored in PDMLink.
It would be nice to have something like
open wtpub:://servername/Product/context/folder/file - print if you know what I mean.
If you have any reference documents or URL, they will be very much appreciated. my research has been unsuccessful so far.
Cheers
I too would be also interested in this. I experimented the other day with this but no luck.
Was wondering if anyone has used an sql query to lookup thelink for a published windchill object, say specifically a drawing ?
Hi Ed,
I finally gave up the idea as I could not find any information. We finally purchased a tool which print out the drawing in pdf outside Windchill.
This tool can actually do a lot more. At the end I am very pleased not to have found anything about that command line 🙂
Let me know if you want to know which solution we went for. I do not want to make unnecessary publicity on the forum.
