CAD Data Management: CAD Document Drawings with a Calculated Windchill Part Association After Revise Are Now Supported
Product: Windchill PDMLink
Release: 11.0 F000
Benefit
A CAD document drawing that is associated with a Windchill part now retains its relationship when the Windchill part or CAD model is revised.
Additional Details
When com.ptc.core.collectionsrv.engine.isCompatibleDrawingAlwaysEnabled is set to true, the system considers Windchill parts revised without the related model CAD document still compatible with the new part revision.
Previously, when a user revised a Windchill part and its related drawing only, the calculated associations were maintained from the Windchill part to the CAD document drawing, but not from the CAD document drawing to the Windchill part. Now, a CAD document drawing that is associated with a Windchill part retains its relationship when the Windchill part or the CAD model is revised. This is achieved using a system-calculated association.
