Customizing the Latest Configuration Specification for Checkout
Example
Default Behavior
During a checkout operation, when the option selected for configuration
specification is Latest, by default table of selected objects displays only WTParts
with no view specified (view == null).
You can customize this behavior by modifying the following entry in
$WT_HOME\codebase\com\ptc\windchill\cadx\cfg\default\cadxhtmlui.ini as
follows:
[config spec policy]
LatestWithViewFromWorkspacePref=true (default is false)
Setting this value adds the view set to the workspace general options for Latest
configuration specification processing.
For example, say you have the following associations:
EPMDocNull associated with WTPartNull (view == null)
EPMDocDesign associated with WTPartDesign (view == Design)
EPMDocDesign associated with WTPartMfg (view ==
Manufacturing)
Default behavior, with the INI setting LatestWithViewFromWorkspacePref=false
and the checkout page rule for Include Parts/Docs set to All, is as follows:
• Selecting EPMDocNull for checkout displays EPMDocNull and WTPartNull.
• Selecting EPMDocDesign for checkout displays only EPMDocDesign.
• Selecting EPMDocMfg for checkout displays only EPMDocMfg.
Customized Behavior
Customized behavior, with the INI setting
LatestWithViewFromWorkspacePref=true and the checkout page rule Include
Parts/Docs set to All, is as follows:
• With the View for Parts on the workspace preferences page General tab set
to :
