Windchill

Hello Everyone,Is it possible to add GUI components like Textbox, Checkbox, Radio Button, Combo Box, and Text Area into an attribute panel using Builders? I was able to achieve this using wrapper tags in JSP. @Override public ComponentConfig buildComponentConfig(ComponentParams param) throws WTException { ComponentConfigFactory componentConfigFactory = getComponentConfigFactory(); AttributePanelConfig attributePanelConfig = componentConfigFactory.newAttributePanelConfig(); GroupConfig groupConfig = componentConfigFactory.newGroupConfig("GUI Componenets"); groupConfig.addComponent((ComponentConfig)componentConfigFactory.newAttributeConfig("date", "Date")); groupConfig.addComponent((ComponentConfig)componentConfigFactory.newAttributeConfig("textBox", "TextBox")); groupConfig.addComponent((ComponentConfig)componentConfigFactory.newAttributeConfig("comboBox", "ComboBox")); groupConfig.addComponent((ComponentConfig)componentConfigFactory.newAttributeConfig("radioButton"

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Phase Access ControlDescription: Remind me please. Is the Phase Access Control on the Lifecycle for a Role the Role in the Context Team or is it applied to the member on the role in the process?What I am wondering is if a named role has edit at a lifecycle phase, do all members of the context team also have edit at that phase or is it just the members of the process itself that are in that Role. I think it's just the process members, just want to check. PTC is not clear on this.Thanks.

Hi Need assistance we have one remote server with 10TB of size and we need to use that server as remote vault .

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: per ASME Y14.35, Section 6.1.5 the "APPROVED" column of the Revision History table is defined as: "Authorized signature(s), name, or approval indicator, as required, shall be entered to indicate approval of the change(s) made to the drawing." When working offline with paper copy, this was traditionally a signature by the engineer reviewing the drawing to signify it had been approved. While working within a PDM system however, the approval is done electronically through a Windchill Workflow, and so this field has a disconnect. Windchill locks the state of the drawing after the engineer approves it, but in order to add the signature of the engineer to the drawing it would have to be modified post approval - which is not allowed by users but if done automatically through a workflow would be acceptable. What my company would like to do is to have is the live and automatic linking of the "approval indicator" (does not need to be a signature or name, co

Hello Everyone,I am trying to add custom html and js scripts to my Windchill UI components. To be specific I have a custom action button in more parts action drop-down menu (image attached). I want to customize its html and add some JS scripts which are to be triggered on click. From my knowledge PTC's official customization guide does not cover such UI customizations, but I have seen others on this forum make some implementations. Any guidance regarding this will be appreciated. 

Say I have a WTDocument with 50+ file attachments. I do a keyword search for a phrase and this WTDocument returns. But which file attachment is the hit in the text preview? Is there a way to figure this out and guide users to the right file?

Hi team,How to mass amend/modify the year value for Created On date. For Eg:01-01-2050 to be modified to 01-01-2015

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 13.0 and Datecode with CPS 13.0.2.0The Text Tailoring Utility seams to replace the rbInfo file for the customization of Text in the UI.https://support.ptc.com/help/windchill/r13.1.0.0/en/index.html#page/Windchill_Help_Center/customization/TypeMgrManageTextTailoringAbout.html#I could not find any info on Exporting the customized Texts for a system (dev) and import it on a new server. How should it be managed ?

When NX data is registered in the Windchill workspace (WS), and the data is subsequently edited in NX without being saved, performing a check-in from the WS displays a dialog indicating that the data is currently being edited in the authoring tool.If the user selects "Update", the NX data is overwritten based on the version stored in the WS.Requests:The wording "Update" is unclear. Please change the label to something more descriptive, such as "Update the data in the authoring tool".Please add an option during the check-in process to update the WS data based on the currently edited NX data instead. （Japanese Body）NXデータをWindchillのワークスペース（WS）に登録後、NX側で編集を行い保存せずにWSからチェックインを実行すると、オーサリングツールで編集されている旨のダイアログが表示され、「更新する」を選択するとWSのデータを基準にNX側のデータが更新されます。​要望:1. 「更新する」という表現が分かりづらいため、「オーサリングツール側のデータを更新する」という表記に変更してほしい。2. チェックイン時に、NXのデータを基準にしてWS側のデータを更新する選択肢も追加してほしい。

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Is it possible to export Part Rename History over UI or WRS or Query Builder for automatic processing?Description: I need to export the rename history of several parts from Windchill. For export, I usually create a view and then save it as an Excel file. Is it possible to include the rename history in a view? Alternatively, is it possible to retrieve the rename history for a part via WRS? Unfortunately, I haven't found a solution using either method. I haven't been able to achieve this using the Query Builder either. I hope someone has a tip for me.

What is the scenario/use case when to use New Downstream View and New Downstream branch? 

Hey everyone,I am a beginner with Windchill and have a question about getting query data from the PTC Windchill server and directly pushing the information to Power BI.I've been doing some research and have seen some other posts on this website mentioning the use of the REST API, however I have not seen a definitive solution to this.My question is if anybody has done this integration if they can share how they have done it or give me some pointers? Thanks in advance.

Hi team,Lastest WTPart and related WTPartMaster already available in windchill. we need to create new old revision of the same WTPart.ex.Existing Part Master - AB12CD and available WTpart revision in the partmaster is 3.2 need to create old Part revision - 0.1, 1.1, 2.1 i try to revise the lasted part and set the revision to the old revison getting below errorError: Cannot change revision of Part - AB12CD, NEWREVDATANAME, ORGNAME, 4.1 (Engineering) to target revision 2. Please share any API or Java code to create the old revision for the existing part. Thanks,Mathivanan

Version: Windchill 11.2 Use Case: Wondering if there is a way to tell Creo/Windchill that a component in an assembly is not to show in the BOM structure.Description: I am trying to get an accurate BOM to take directly to Syspro MRP. We don't use WT parts at this time so looking for a solution without WT parts if possible. We currently export a CSV of the multi-level structure report from Windchill and import this into Syspro. This method works great until we have components in the CAD assembly that we don't want to show in Syspro. Then we have to manually go through and clean things up. Would be great if a part could be set to not show in the BOM- whether that is from within Creo or within Windchill . We use Creo 8.0.10.0 and Windchill 11.2.1.0 Thanks!Matt

I am trying to setup a Sandbox runtime environment for DevOps . Our windchill has 1000s of Product and Libraray , Context , Folder, Template , Team , Policies  . As Dev/Test environment cloning is a costly affair in terms on infrastructure and Cloud maintenance , we want to setup a vanilla 12.0 server and load data through LoadFromFile . Is thee any mechanism we have to  get all the administrative data in XML ?  My runtime env version is same as Dev/Test I can use a java code and QuerySpec , however looking for a loader that can be  optimized and have all necessary dependency

Version: Windchill 12.1 Use Case: Would like to work an alternate BOM from another one in the BOM transformerDescription: Hello, Is it possible to filter the view in BOM transformer to see an alternate BOM on the left and another alternate in the right?For example, I create a design BOM (without alternate).Then from this BOM I create the design alternate BOM 001.And from the design alternate BOM 001 I create the design alternate BOM 002.I would like to work the design alternate BOM 002 from the design alternate BOM 001.So how I can display the alternate BOM 001 on the left side of BOM transformer (and design alternate BOM 002 on the right side)?With my filter I always see the original BOM on the left side (the BOM without alternate number)

I am using Windchill PDMLink Release 12.0 and Datecode with CPS 12.0.0.0Hello! I'm encountering an issue during development.I'm using TableBuilder to create a table where one column displays radio buttons and another column shows text input fields for user input. However, when the table exceeds a few hundred rows, the selected radio buttons and input text disappear after scrolling. I suspect this is caused by Ext.js re-rendering the table and not preserving the modified states of the radio buttons and input fields, but I’m unsure how to fix this.If you’ve faced similar issues or have a solution, I’d greatly appreciate your advice. Thank you!
