Hi everyone,   Does anyone know of documentation or guides available to create a workflow expression to automatically save/export a drawing representation (eg.

Is it possible for users to default to a custom navigation filter? We have defined a set of navigation filters using the manage filters option. Windchill 11.2 allows users to switch to a particular filter using the manage filters dropdown option. But this doesn't work when users navigate to another part structure. System automatically changes users filter selection back to 'System Default'. Instead we want to keep the filter selection permanently for users. We can't modify System Default and that affects every user in the system. Because groups of users like Designers and Mfg Engineers want to have different filter criteria/filters.

HiThis is my first post on this forum, thanks for any help! For changing a part in an subassembly in an assembly I am using the set state function from "released" to "in work" and this is working well. However, for the collector I would like to collect all affected assemblies "upstream" and use set state on these as well in the same operation. I have a button named "collect upstream equivalent part", but it seems locked by a setting and nothing happens when I click this button. Is the function of this button according to wanted solution? Where do I activate this button? This option should only be valid for administrator and should be set under "my preferences" then logged in as admininstrator? BR Arild

Hi experts, We have custom webjcets for creation of WTpart and WTPartUsageLink.These were able to use with no problem in Windchill 9.1.But the webject for WTPartUsageLink only when it updates multiple records(ex: a process is a update of one parent and creations of multiple WTPartUsageLink) in one transaction, no longer returns the process after upgrade from 9.1 to 11.1.The webject for WTpart (this process is always one record update in one transaction), and also webject for WTPartUsageLink when it updates one record in one transaction have no problem under Windchill 11.1.We have thoroughly investigated this webject's logic and it seems fine. We also checked property files(wt.properties and db.properties), but could not determine whether they were affected or not.Are there any other points we should investigate to help us resolve this issue?
