• To choose the version of the CAD Documents shown in the Commonspace from Creo’s Open dialog box, Open from Windchill, and the Windchill File System Management.
• To choose the version of the objects to add to the workspace if only CAD Documents are selected OR if CAD Documents and parts are selected for a workspace action.
• To determine if the CAD Document versions in the workspace are out-of-date with the workspace configuration.
• To get the version of a CAD Document’s dependents when the workspace preference option Dependency Processing Type is set to CAD Document Structure.
