Question

Change sort order on an enumerated type

Right now Default Unit (wt.part.QuantityUnitRB) is sorted explicitly, is there a way to change this to be sorted alphabetically? Using the enumcustomize utility, the options to change Sort Order are greyed out.


Thanks,
Steve D.

I've noticed that they've been grayed out since Windchill release 8.0 at least.

So in the .rbInfo file the order line has no effect?
ea.value=each
ea.comment=For example, how much quantity of a material would you need: 2 meters, 2 kilos, 2 each.
ea.shortDescription=each
ea.order=10
ea.defaultValue=true

I thought that is how it does sorting but it depends upon how the implementer of the Data Utility to display UoM did the sort.

The order field will sort the values. But there is a greyed out option to sort alphabetically using enumcustomize. I would rather have the sorted automatically versus manually. As a workaround now, I'm using the order field, just wanted to see if this was the only way.

Thx,
