Question

Windchill 10.3 (X-26)

Not sure if it will move, but the PTC Product Calendar now is listing a release target for the next version of Windchill.

I'm also starting to see support documents discussing Creo Parametric 4.0. I wonder if maybe that will be released around the same time...

In some ways it's kind of funny. We are finally getting ready to jump from Wildfire 5.0 to Creo 3.0. Maybe we should wait a little longer and just go from Wildfire 5.0 to Creo 5.0. Of course by then it will probably have it's name changed again.

Looks like we might be getting a "major" release instead of a "minor" one. X-26 now appears to be Windchill 11.0 instead of 10.3.

On the other hand, there are many support articles that say things will be fixed in 10.3, so maybe this is just a typo.

It now shows on the PTC Calendar December 2015. Is there any documentation of new features?

Steve Galayda‌, take a look at the video recording of the Windchill Roadmap from PTC Live Global 2015.

I wish I could watch them at work but our IT dept doesn't allow ANY video streaming.  Even if it is directly related to our work.  We can only watch it if we have the file.  Is there any chance these could be downloadable?  If not then the only way for me to view them is to watch them at home.

Someone in PTC management really needs to tell tech support what they are supposed to call the next version of Windchill.

(These articles were both created in the last two days.)

I sure hope once it's "official" someone goes back and cleans up the knowledge base.

Hi, I'm Heidi Khetani, the Knowledge Manager at PTC Technical Support. I am responsible for our Knowledge Management road map and processes which includes the overall quality of our knowledge base.

In Technical Support, we are keen to promote "just-in-time" publishing of knowledge, aiming to publish information as early as possible to allow our customers to take advantage of it. The information contained within the articles in the knowledge base, can, and does evolve over time and our engineers will update articles as new information becomes available.

We take accuracy of our content extremely seriously; sorry for the naming confusion in the articles you cited.  We have already taken steps to correct the small number of articles referring to Windchill 10.3 to refer to the official release 11.0. We are also ensuring our engineers all refer to the 11.0 release going forwards to avoid any further confusion.

Thanks Heidi!  It's so nice to know it's officially 11.0.  It's also good to hear that the knowledge base will be updated to reflect this.
