The"new view" action should be under Actions menue directelly and not Under the sbmenu Actions\menue.

 

So, this action does not create a very new object.
However, the action new version create realy a new object is Under menue Action.
The action  semantics  does not respect the actions a classification.

 

So we propose to change this action Under Actions menue.

Should this be moved to the Windchill Ideas forum?

Hi @aida,

You can achieve this by following below steps.

1. Open "<WT_HOME>\codebase\config\actions\PartClient-actionmodels.xml" file

2. Locate below line under "more parts toolbar actions new" model:

<action name="newViewVersion" type="part"/> 

3. Comment out this line

4. Add same line under "more parts actions" model

5. Save this file.

6. As a Windchill Administrator access below URL:

http://<WC_Host>/Windchill/app/#ptc1/carambola/tools/list

7. Click Reload Action(s)

8. Navigate to Folder page and you will observe that New View Version is now available under Actions menu.
