Enhanced File Saving for Creo Elements/Direct Modeling
Windchill Workgroup Manager for Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 13.0.2.0
User Interface Location: N/A
Description
Starting with Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.6.2.0, a CAD document is saved to Windchill with the same release version.
For example, a file created in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.6.2.0 is saved in Windchill as a Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.6 file.
Files saved in Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.6.2.0 cannot be opened in any earlier releases of Creo Elements/Direct Modeling. However, files are forward compatible, that is, the files saved in the older releases can be opened in the newer releases of Creo Elements/Direct Modeling.
This behavior applies to Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 20.6.2.0 or later version when used with Windchill Workgroup Manager 13.0.0.0 or later version.
