Setting Behavior when Authoring Language is Null
Objects that were created before authoring languages were introduced have no Authoring Language attribute value (a null value). The com.ptc.core.td.localeForNullAuthoringLanguage property specifies a value for the authoring language for such objects in the following situations:
• When displaying the Authoring Language attribute for the object in the user interface
• When exporting the object
• When retrieving the display values for translated text attributes for the object
The value of this property must be a supported language tag following the syntax of
[language code]-[region code], for example
en-US.
Windchill language tag support is described in
Available Languages.
To set this property, enter the following command from a Windchill shell:
xconfmanager -s com.ptc.core.td.localeForNullAuthoringLanguage=
<language tag> -t wt.properties -p
For example, to set the property to en-US, run the following command:
xconfmanager -s com.ptc.core.td.localeForNullAuthoringLanguage=
en-US -t wt.properties -p
This property needs to be set so that search works properly for translatable attributes.
