Drawing Attribute Method
To define drawings using the attribute method, the server-side preference Define Drawing must be set to the value “attribute.” When the Define Drawing preference is set to “Attribute,” then, if the NX CAD part has its system parameter PTC_WM_IS_DRAWING set to True, a CAD document of type Drawing is created at first upload to Windchill. If you want to use a differently named attribute, an administrator can set up a system attribute mapping for this parameter.
For more information on mapping attributes, refer to Configuring Attributes.
