Uploading the Customized Files to Windchill

Customizing the Ribbon > Uploading the Customized Files to Windchill

By following the steps in the previous section, you have created a customized ribbon file. Follow the next steps to upload the preferences to your Windchill server.

1. In Windchill, navigate to the Product > Utilities > Visualization Configuration Administration page.

2. Click Create configuration, and then upload the zip files you created.

If there are previously uploaded uiconfig.xml and referenced image files, delete them before uploading.

3. Clear the Creo View cache (%APPDATA%\PTC\ProductView).

4. Open a structure in Creo View from Windchill to validate that the customized menu appears in the ribbon menu.

5. Click Close. Your preferences are uploaded. For more information on uploading preferences, see the Windchill Help.

You have now implemented your server preferences on Windchill. The customized menu should appear in the ribbon menu for all Windchill users who are accessing the object from within the configured context.
