Installing the Configurable Links Example
Use the following procedure to install the configurable links example:
1. Open a windchill shell.
2. Enter the following command:
xconfmanager -i
<Windchill>/codebase/com/ptc/windchill/enterprise/ConfigurableLinkExamples.xconf -p
3. To display the example Configurable Links tables in Windchill, set the values for the properties for each configurable link type as below.
◦ com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.part.showReferenceLinksTable=ALL
◦ com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.part.showDescribeLinksTable=ALL
◦ com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.part.showRevisionLinksTable=ALL
◦ com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.part.showMasterLinksTable=ALL
|
You can also set each of the above properties to display only the parent or child table by using the PARENT or CHILD value, respectively, instead of ALL.
|
4. Restart your method server.
5. Load the loadfile:
windchill wt.load.LoadFromFile -d
<Windchill>/loadFiles/configurableLinks/ConfigurableLinkExamples.xml
|
The actionmodels.xml file overrides the Customize menu on information pages with the Configurable Link Examples menu on the end. If you have customized your third-level navigation menus, then these lists must match, or your customizations will be overridden. As an alternative, you could add the Configurable Link third-level navigation to the actions entry for your info pages.
