Allow Replace
|
Yes
No (default)
|
Controls the availability of the "Replace" button in the Save As UI. The "Replace" button allows a user to perform a global replace of one object in the structure with a different object in the commonspace. The default is "No" (replacement is not allowed), and it is strongly recommended to use the default setting. Replace is only possible for Creo Parametric CAD documents, and this control is not the same as replacing the component in Creo Parametric. It does not guarantee retrieval of the assembly with the replaced component.
|
|
Inherit FileName from Name
|
Yes
No (default)
|
Controls how the file name is assigned by default for a new CAD document using the Save As command in the workspace and commonspace. When set to "Yes", the new file name is set to the same value as the new CAD document name plus an appropriate extension. When set to "No" (default), preferences for CAD Document Filename Prefix and CAD Document Filename Suffix is applied to the original file name to produce a new name.
|
|
Inherit FileName from Number
|
Yes
No (default)
|
Controls how the file name is assigned by default for a new CAD document using the Save As command in the workspace and commonspace. Possible values are "Yes" or "No" (default) . When set to "Yes", the new filename is set to the same as value as the new CAD document number plus an appropriate extension. When set to "No", the new filename is set based on changing the original filename using the CAD Document Filename Prefix and CAD Document Filename Suffix preferences.
|
|
Save Selected Objects Only
|
Yes
No (default)
|
If set to "Yes," only selected objects are marked for Save As and dependent objects are marked for reuse. The default setting is "No." By default selected and dependent objects are all eligible for Save As.
|
|
Skip CAD/Dynamic Document Attachments
|
Restricts the type of attachments copied onto the new CAD/Dynamic document. When using commonspace or workspace Save As, the preference specifies the attachments excluded from this action. The value is given in a formatted, comma separated list. The format for a single value is: <content_role>:<content_category>.
Possible values for content role are: SECONDARY and ADDITIONAL_FILES.
For content category, use the internal name of a valid content category. Possible values can be customized, or a PTC provided category. The internal names are visible in the CAD Data Management preferences.

Verify the attachments when saving and revising from the workspace, as the CAD Document contents may vary based on the sequence of operations like in conflict scenarios.
