Windchill

Version: Windchill 11.1 Use Case: In windchill 11.0 the CAD BOM the As Stored configuration filter is applied for the Parent assembly in which the 1st level child has the non-latest version, but the 2nd level child has the latest version for the Sub assembly instead of the non-latest version (as stored configuration)Description: Is the as stored configuration filter only applicable to 1st level child of the Parent assembly? Does the filter not take the as stored filter configuration for the 2nd level where the child is non latest, or does it always consider the latest filter for sub assembly levels? (refer Image 1 for as stored & image 2 for latest filter configuration)

I am converting some old JCA tables to MVC but customization guide lacks sufficient examples to a certain area, using "addServiceArgument" in the getModel section. Here is my existing code:<jca:getModel var="tableModel" descriptor="${tableDescriptor}"               serviceName="customization.change.GoodrichECReportServiceImpl"               methodName="getBOMDifferences">    <jca:addServiceArgument value="${pair}" type="customization.change.PLPair"/></jca:getModel>Now, I have created my custom Table builder class and defined my columns.  The code above would be replaced with buildComponentData(...) as shown on page 612 of customizer's guide.  However, PTC skirted the example. They were passing in a user and an Integer. In the MVC example, they did not show how an object could be retrieved from I assume, Co

Version: Windchill 12.0 Use Case: Trying to check in a file File was originally created with a verbose, temporary name File was renamed after final revisions Check in attempted and failedDescription: Good afternoon PTC Community, I am trying to check in some part and assembly files on Windchill. Windchill thinks that the files names/descriptions are too long, despite being renamed. The original file names were over the 60-character limit, and they have since been renamed to be much shorter, but Windchill seems to not have noticed, eg; it will say a name like '10-376-1.prt' is too long.The problem persists with copies of the original, and regardless of whether I am using windchill from creo or a browser. Has anyone discovered a solution to this?As an addendum, it would help solve some related issues if anyone knew of a method to move files between workspaces.

Hi Experts, I am just wondering is there any data inside the GOLF_CART product?I have installed the WC 13 successfully with demo and all other data load conditions are checked during the installation. Installation was successful but I haven't check GOLF_CART product.Now I can see it doesn't show up any demo data?No CAD documents and No WC parts etc   Can someone confirm it the GOLF_CART is having any data when we load a demo Data during the installation. or If I have missed anything or any sort of issue which can cause this?  It will be great help if get any suggestions on this as we are bit stuck here ... Feel free to leave comment if I have missed anything... Thanks in Advance.   

I'm encountering an issue when creating a new Manufacturing (MFG) part that has an equivalent part with an Image or Contributing Image link. According to the Help Center [link], this capability is intended to be used when creating a New Downstream Branch/Part. However, instead of retrieving the image-linked representation, the system is pulling the owner representation, which leads to incorrect positioning in the resulting structure.The main point I’d like to clarify is:Is it possible to create a new manufacturing branch/part without mispositioning, assuming the upstream part has an image link to the CAD Document?Is there a supported or recommended approach to ensure the image-linked representation is used correctly during transformation?Any guidance or best practices to avoid this behavior would be greatly appreciated. Note: build the mBOM from the Design Part works as expected. The issue only occurs when a new MFG Part is created.

The PTC User Research Team is conducting a user research activity to better understand how users interact with the Collector tool, specifically within Change Management or in the Workspace. This remote, online research interview will be conducted via MS Teams and will last approximately 30 - 45 minutes. During the session, you will be able to share thoughts on what works well, what doesn’t, and what could be improved. If you’re interested in participating, please contact me at angwang@ptc.com! Thank you!Angela Wang, PTCWindchill UX and Research Intern

How do I download the AS_STORED configuration on C++ or odata endpoints? I see in documentation its not directly possible with checkout, but I need this. Is there a workaround? How do I get the relationship tree AS_STORED?

Nothing too critical but documenting this for future. This is me after this week battling Windchill configuration: The latest saga is with SSO. I have my notes from last year which is pretty straight forward except now I am running RHEL 9.2, SELinux (we'll get to you later), Windchill 13.0.2.4, Shibboleth 3.5. When I went to configure Apache to load the Shibboleth modules, it failed to start with this error: 00-1mod_shib.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib64/shibboleth/mod_shib_24.so into server: /lib64/libldap.so.2: undefined symbol: EVP_md2, version OPENSSL_3.0.0 Jun 13 14:53:47 systemd[1]: windchill-httpd.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Now, I've seen this type of thing before on my 12.0.2 server. I followed CS352455 and it fixed it but this error 00-1mod_shib.conf: Cannot load /usr/lib64/shibboleth/mod_shib_24.so into server: /lib64/libldap.so.2: undefined symbol: EVP_md2, version OPENSSL_3.0.0 was different talking about a different library.

I seem to remember that installing Thingworx also installed additional API functionality but I can't find any information on this on the PTC site, so I'm asking the community.We are running Windchill 13 and have external tools accessing Windchill via the odata API. We are wondering if installing Thingworx just for the sake of getting additional/better API capability could be worth the effort and what would be the benefit (for example more complex calls or better performance?). Or was this additional API a thing from previous versions and is currently everything already in the Windchill API? Any links to documentation would be appreviated.  Kind regards,\/\/outer...

Version: Windchill 13.0 Use Case: - User is in AD license group X1234 which is part of the Advance license in Windchill. User has advanced license profile in participant administration. - User is removed from group X1234 and put in group X4321 which is part of the Base license in Windchill. - After 5-20 minutes user is part of the new license group in Windchill but his user profile remains Advanced - Clearing the user from the partipant cache (or restarting Windchill) changes the profile to the expected Base profile.Description: We have Active Directory synchronization and the license groups in AD are linked to the license groups in Windchill. Now when I move a user from one AD license group (e.g. Advanced) to another (e.g. Base) the license group gets reflected after a while in the participant administration (when user connects again) BUT the license profile of the user does not update, hence causing very strange UI behavior (e.g. search tab disappearing, menu items disappearing)

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: I want to open parts from Windchill in Creo View for Unix.Description: I have installed Creo View for Unix on my work laptop, but I still cannot use "Open in Creo View" from Windchill in a web browser.

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: We want to use Variant Baselines (Object: wt.lotbaseline.LotBaseline) in a more official way (a prototype that represents something between 150% and 100% and that is officially released for specific countries). Therefore we would like to release the Variant Baseline itself, by meaning adding it to a Change Notice and drive the change workflow to state "Released".Description: It is not possible to add wt.lotbaseline.LotBaseline to the ChangeRecord because it is not selectable in the relationship contraints of the ChangeRecord. Does someone know why or is someone experienced in Variant Baselines?
