Control Searching when checking in drawings to PDMWorks

Control Searching when checking in drawings to PDMWorks

Control Searching when checking in drawings to PDMWorks

(OP)
Hello,

When we check in an assembly and include drawings, the check in process is dramatically increased because SW searches all over the place looking for-I assume-drawings. How do I control this? It didn't seem to happen in 2006. We are at 2007sp1.1

Thank you,

Uncheck the box to include drawings.

That's fine, until we want to include drawings. Then it searches in places that we know there aren't any drawings, or anything SW for that matter.

I'm just curious where it is that you specify that. It didn't happen in 2006, and we use the same file locations and settings.
