Include Secondary Content Attachment with an Illustration
You can associate an ICN’s secondary content file as an attachment when the ICN is created from a local file.
|
If you create an illustration from a Creo Illustrate or Servigistics Arbortext IsoDraw template, a blank secondary content file will be included as an attachment to the ICN automatically. You can then edit the illustration to add the required secondary content file, using Windchill Workgroup Manager and the corresponding authoring application.
