ProductToView
|
Visualizes the Creo View data in ThingWorx. Use this property to specify the URL to the Creo View structure file. You can load either a PVZ file or URL to the structure.
If your model contains a single figure, it is automatically loaded.
If your model contains multiple figures, no figure is automatically loaded. In this case, select the figure you want to load using the Views property or the ThingViewControls user interface.
If the model contains no figures, all the default visible parts from the structure are loaded.
As the ThingView widget runs in the client browser session, any requests for content that is not to the same-origin is subjected to cross-origin request rules. As a best practice, content should either be located and served by the ThingWorx server or be routed through a content proxy if you load it from Windchill.

For changing the color and transparency of parts, use another column along with a DataFormatter. See the DataFormatter property for more information. Bind this Data Table to the Data property and Data property of the Grid widget to perform a cross selection between them.
