Administering Colorway Manager Properties
The colorway manager functionality is automatically enabled when you install PTC FlexPLM. The jsp.season.LinePlan.enableColorwayManager property controls the colorway manager functionality. By default, the property is set to true.
If your use of PTC FlexPLM does not require colorway manager functionality, it can be turned off in the custom.lcs.properties file.
1. Open the custom.lcs.properties file.
2. Add the jsp.season.LinePlan.enableColorwayManager=false property.
3. Save the changes.
* 
You must have system administrator privileges to make changes to the custom.lcs.properties file.
Additional Colorway Manager Properties
The properties described in the following table can be used to control the appearance of colorway manager information. You must have system administrator privileges to make updates or changes to these properties.
Property Name
Description
jsp.season.colorwaymanager.maxproducts=30
Defines the maximum number of products that can be selected when using the colorway manager.
Increasing this number allows more products to be selected, but can make the page hard to use, as the products scroll to the right. Additionally, more products have a detrimental effect on performance in both the loading of the page as well the use of the checkboxes within the page. Save actions also take longer with more product/color changes being affected.
jsp.season.colorwaymanager.ColorAttributes=type,name,colorchip
Defines which color attributes are displayed for the colors on the Colorway Manager page.
The attributes must be defined at the root color type before they can be included. Adding an attribute not defined at the root type causes an exception. The list must be comma separated and contain the keys of the attributes to include.
The exceptions are type which includes the PTC FlexPLM type, and colorchip which shows the RGB value or thumbnail if the color has one. The order in which the attributes are specified is the order in which the attributes are displayed.
jsp.season.colorwaymanager.ProductMinColumnWidths=15
Defines the width of each product column within the Colorway Manager page.
Changing this property increases or decreases the minimum width of the Product columns. If a product name is longer than the given width, the name wraps as allowed by the individual browser. If the name cannot wrap, the column width is forced to be wider than the specified value.
* 
The number is approximately the number of characters that fits in the column.
jsp.season.colorwaymanager.repeatHeaderNumberofRows=30
Defines how many rows appear before the header repeats on the Colorway Manager page.
Depending on the intended size of page and typical resolution, increase or decrease this number appropriately. The default setting is 30. Based on a screen resolution of 1280x1024 at full screen, a typical table shows 30 rows. Set the value to 0 to prevent the header from repeating.
