Windchill Customization

I am looking to add some additional actions to a Configurable Links table, specifically I would like to add the submodel for export to give the user the ability to export the table to an excel spreadsheet. I've added the export submodel to the table in custom actionmodel and this does not work.   I opened up a support ticket for this issue and the answered that I received is listed below. Has anybody been able to find a way around this limitation?   I have set up server and install Configurable Links. I have tried to adding export actions (export to excel ,export to File etc) however it does not work. Also, tried with adding submodel but still that fails as configurable Table toolbar action is controlled by   “ConfigurableLinkTableToolbarActionCommandDelegate”. Article : CS237601 for reference.   This seems to limitation of this delegate class which will not allow submodel or actions governed by submodel;  however it may work for few other ootb or custom action

For a few workflows I've created methods to set an object's attribute (one for String, one for TimeStamps) which have worked great over the past few years. I have a new requirement to set an int's value. I created a new method and changed the input attribute to accept an int. When I call the method, i get an odd error telling me I've violated the limit constraint. The value I'm sending is 2 which should not cause any issues.   wt.system.err Administrator - com.ptc.core.meta.container.common.ConstraintException: The value for Number Of Cavities must be between -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and 9,223,372,036,854,775,807, inclusive.   The method i have is the following public static void setAttributeValue(WTObject pbo, String IBAName,int IBAValue) { PersistableAdapter obj; try { obj = new PersistableAdapter(pbo, null,Locale.US, new UpdateOperationIdentifier()); obj.load(IBAName); System.out.println("Attribute " + IBAName + " value is " + IBAValue); obj.set(IBAName,

Hi All,   Wanted to see which ways there would be to attack this... I have users that will get promotion requests with say 10 or more drawings... once the promotion request inevitably goes thru the rework process, my users cannot tell which drawings have been iterated, and need rechecking at a glance.  I was thinking perhaps there is a way to display this in a notification email?  Or a new tab on the promotion request page which says whether a drawing has a new iteration (True/false) since the last submission?   Thanks in advance for weighing in!

Hello, we use Windchill as the back end product of xml in Arbortext Editor. We've been told that Windchill is the best way to manage and use content that is reused in multiple documents. Does anyone have experience doing this or does anyone have instructions? Thanks!  

I am trying to work backward from creating a new workflow for promotion requests... I want to make an additional lifecycle to select from.  I need to edit the OIR to allow a drop down for lifecycle selection. But... I just noticed that at the organization level.. I have both the site-OOTB and the slightly modified organization level OIR in the list.  My question is... how does windchill pick which OIR to use?   Thanks for any insight!
