Windchill

Hello PTC Community,I recently created a 3 parameter Weibull plot. I understand the basics of 2 paramater vs. 3 parameter and time shifting using γ (gamma).If you look at the 3-parameter Weibull plot below, the curved line is the unshifted data. My question for everyone is, what is that line? If you plot the unshifted data using 2-parameters, the line looks straight. However, when you plot it using a 3-parameters, then we see a curved unshifted line. Does anyone have any insight into this?2-parameter Weibull plot3-parameter Weibull plot (curved line is probability line [unshifted data], straight line is shifted data)

Hi Gurus, Can you tell me how I can set the default values for the OOTB WTPart attributes (Standard or Configurable, Create as End Item, Assembly Mode, etc.)? I thought this could be done with an OIR or by setting the default value in the resource bundles but it doesn't seem to be working. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.Windchill 9.1 M070Best Regards,Dax WilliamsEngineering E-Tools AdministratorGE Healthcare OECSurgery-<">mailto:->384 Wright Brothers DriveSalt Lake City, Utah 84116

Hi all,We have our internet gateway for all the access of several inhouse applications that can run on a browser.Windchill is one of them. We use PDMLink 10.2But the strange thing is that the login screen is not presented in WGM and DTI, because of the authentication requested by the internet gateway before the client can hit the windchill server.Has anyone faced these kind of issues?Best RegardsHari

Hi all,Is there any mechanism that allows suppliers to get access to only "Supplier" contexts and nothing else in Windchill?The purpose is to allow access to only "Vendor Parts" that is tagged to the supplier. This is needed to share "Released" Parts, documents, drawings and the necessary information to manufacture the part  , this may vary between suppliers.Thanks & RegardsHari

Is there any way to open PDF's directly into a PDF viewer (like Adobe/Acrobat Reader) instead of Creo View when using the Windchill search results? Creo View opens the PDF with Acrobat Reader embedded within Creo View which has caused software compatibility issues as Acrobat Reader continues to be updated. Then we're left updating Creo View to work with the latest until Acrobat Reader gets updated again. This has happened twice in the last year and packaging software through our IT can take several weeks/months. I'd like to get out of the annoying compatibility cycle and just open the PDF directly without Creo View. I have seen no advantage to opening PDF's in Creo View yet with disadvantages including having less screen space to view the drawing and software compatibility issues. Creo View works pretty well for 3D but has no real use when looking at PDFs.We're using Windchill 10.1 M040 currently but are hoping to go to Windchill 11 later this year if there's a solution in a later vers

Recently we acquired a company that had a large amount of Intralink 3.4 data and now I am tasked with trying to ingest it all into one platform which is our production Windchill 10.2 environment with oracle back end DB. Due to the physical server hosting the Intralink 3.4 instances being at a remote facility, we have installed on a separate workstation Wildfire 2.0/Intralink 3.4 to try and connect over the wire to the common space files stored on the off-prem server. Utilizing a known good username and password this is the error we are receiving on the client side: PDMc_GenericDatabase::LoadActnCodeAndActnNameMaps when trying to login to the off-prem 3.4 intralink server.we have also turned off:1. all antivirus software.2. Windows firewalls3. Ping times between each are stable and consistant4. no ports are being blocked on the networking side outbound or inbound.Thanks in advance,Frank

I have a report that is returning WTDocuments, Derived Images and Application Data related to that Derived Image.  So report shows all WTDocuments. If there is a derived image linked to that WTDoc, report its ID and report the application data that is link to that Derived Image.  What should return is three IDs and in cases where there is not a derived image for the WTDoc, those columns would be empty.  This is a classic SQL outer join case. What I am getting in cases where there is a derived image and application data, is a row that shows the document and the derived image but application data is null followed by another row were all three are filled in. How can I eliminate the prior case where application data is null?Above you can see the objects and outer joins. I have derived image outer joined to document and application data outer joined to derived image.  I have tried it multiple ways and it seems to only show records where all three exist. Not what I was lo

I have created one custom table in details page of Document.The data in table must be as follows-1.  1st column should fetch the values of multi-valued attribute of the Document. This values should be displayed in different Rows one by one. Please refer the image2. 2nd column must contains 2 actions for adding documents (insert new and insert existing action)3.  3rd will have the reference documents added but these must be comma separated and must have infopage link

One of the most annoying things about Windchill has got to be its interface with Java.Just finished re-hosting Windchill/Intralink 10.2 M030 to a test system and would like to look at the "Vault Configuration" but something regarding Java is not working?I believe I'm running the correct non-latest version (7.0.790). I have the correct "Exception Site Lists" defined.Prior to posting I have spent hours searching for solution but nothing has worked?May I ask what are the key steps to properly get this to work?

Hello,Is it possible to download the EPMDocument 3D data using the SQL expression or the Windchill API just like we can do it for WTDocument

I started a Master Assy using Type Part.  I think we are going to use what we call Family Models in the EBOM which will equivalent link to Models located in the MBOM.  Can Type Part be the parent to Type Model?                Highest Level Type=Part                                   |         ----------------------------------------         |                                              |Type=Model      &nb

Hi AllI am looking for some advice on best practice in terms of the use of Windchill Projects and the interaction with Packages. We are using the tool within a complex environment of who is able to access what data.  From what i can tell there are two ways to make a document visible in a ProjectIn the Product/Library, open the items and use "Send to Project"Within the Project, Create a Package (CDRL) and and relate the document (in Product/Library - Has not been shared) to the package.Both options appear to work and will provide Project participants access to file that they can not normally see. My biggest concern with option 2 is that you can not see from the document record, the projects it has been shared to. What do other users see as the advantages or disadvantages of both approaches. Thanks for thisShane

What 's  a difference between Temperature Rise and temp Override? If we have assembly temperature measurements data, we should fill in that temperature Rise or temp override.

Hi, I think there would be benefit in allowing the System Name (System Tree Table) to be able to be selected for use as a filter.Currently I use a FRACAS group to collate system files from several project to run reports/graphs.  However, we also wish to be able to select one of the listed system names individually without having to open the project is resides in.Adding a filter which allows you to select a system file from projects you have access to would be beneficial.cheersBernadette

Is there anyway I can setup a notification whenever a context team is modified? I want to setup a notfication to alert the administrator whenever someone add/removes principal to Context team. I tried the notification on contextteam from policy administrator, this did not work.

Our service department recently was searching for a vehicle VIN number in Windchill.  Lets say the VIN was 1HTGPSNR4HH542122 (an attribute, not name or number field), when this VIN was entered it returned nothing...what we found was that someone replaced the leading 1 with an I.  No biggy, was fixed immediately. BUT we realized a searching short coming.  The user tried leading ** to try and find the number, but couldn't. He searched:*HTGPSNR4HH542122**TGPSNR4HH542122With no return.  Is there anyway to search and attribute with leading wildcards?Thanks,Greg
