    Windchill - "Released" part to "In Work" part

    Hi, I have a part that is in "Released" state at version 3.4. I would like to know how I can create an "In Work" state of the part without changing the rev? In other words I want it to remain at revision 3 (3.x), but I want it to go from version 3.4 "Released" to 3.5 "In Work". How would I...

    Dimension for form doesn't show up.

    I've seen this before but I'd like to know what is wrong and if there is a way to resolve this. And I searched the faq's and did not find an answer. My problem is that I installed a louver on a sheet metal door and then attempted to pattern the form. However in order to pattern the form I...

    How to search the database for the creator

    Hi, (using WF5.0 and Windchill) I'm relatively new to Windchill. I'd like to search commonspace for the creator. I haven't yet figured out how to do that type of search. Surely it can be done, right? Can someone give me a clue? Thanks SrG.

    Critical error; file name conflict

    (We use WF5.0 and Windchill) I've seen what seems to be an odd problem in Windchill. Sometimes in Windchill we get a "warning" symbol that looks like a stop sign in the same line with a few of the objects in our workspace browser. When we mouse over the stop sign symbol the hint shows up that...

    How to do a cabinet wall cut-out in a drawing?

    Hi, I've been doing Pro-E for quite awhile now (currently on WF-5), but I've rarely had to do this. Say I have an electronics cabinet and in a drawing I want to cut away a portion of the cabinet's wall to see a component mounted inside. Is there a way in the Pro-E drawing module to do a small...

    Undoing Windchill frames like we could do in Intralink

    Several months ago we switched from Intralink to Windchill. I remember that in Intralink, we could “undo” frames. This would effectively undo any CAD work and restore the models back to any of the previously saved configurations. This is a very valuable tool to have. Do we have this ability...

    What's the difference (Download - Link)

    Hi and thanks for all responses. In Windchill when adding objects to a workspace, what's the difference between "Download" and "Link". I think I understand the basic difference (but please include your comments) but my question has more to do with "is one prefered or more efficient than the...
