Question

Why does the Advanced Search tab in Creo still look like it came from Windchill 9?

Does it bother anyone else that the Windchill Advanced Search tab in Creo still looks like it came straight from Windchill 9.0? We kind of forget that it is there anyway, but firing up Creo 6.0 connected to WC 11 I really don't expect to see this. Seems like a long overdue change that wouldn't take long at all to implement. It just looks careless.

    I've found it to be buggy too.. I tell all my users to use the Windchill search and not that search. I wish we could disable or hide it.

    What if we (PTC) actually removed it from Creo entirely steering user towards using the Windchill search from the embedded browser instead?

      That would be acceptable to me. Having two completely different ways of searching Windchill essentially side by side in the application seems unnecessary. An option to toggle the tab would be nice.
      In fact there is some additional redundancy in other aspects of the Creo Navigator and Windchill Navigator sitting side by side. It would be nice if one of them just took on the abilities of the other when connected to Windchill.
