Changing Displayed Text Found in RBINFO Files
 |
New utilities are available for tailoring common text displayed in the UI. For more information, see Text Tailoring Utility and Managing Modeled Enumerations. It is highly recommended that you switch to these methods for configuring text displayed in the UI.

If you need to continue using the legacy methods, to ensure that site changes to displayed text that resides in RBINFO files is properly handled, note the following points:
• Site changes to PTC text values should be stored in RBINFO files that are in the <Windchill>/wtCustom directory structure. Never edit the RBINFO files in the <Windchill>/src directory. When the enumCustomize tool is used, it creates the required wtCustom directory structure.
• Changes to displayed text may have an effect on resources that are incorporated in client JAR files. Make sure to consult Managing Client JAR Files.
• The Windchill Service Pack and patch installers automatically re-compile these resources so maintenance updates and your site changes are re-combined.
