WOW! You rolled out v19 right away. Brave soul.
Since I don't have it installed yet, I can't say, but let's follow up with some questions.
Is this a part or assembly?
Can you turn on the PMI toolbar (View->Toolbars->PMI)?
Based on what I have read, PMI seems to be an application similar to exploded views, simplified part, or rendering. Have you switched to the PMI application in order to get the PMI branch in the Edge Bar?

Doesn't seem to matter which environment I'm in although I've tried both.
I've activated the toolbar and those buttons are greyed as well.
I haven't used the exploded view or rendering applications before. How do you activate them to get the PMI branch?
thanks for any help

You shouldn't need to activate exploded view or rendering.
Since I don't have v19 loaded right now, I was trying to relate to something I was familiar with in an earlier version.
Look at your menu bar. Is there an Application menu. If so, click on it and see if PMI is listed there along with exploded view, rendering, motion, or whatever they may be called now.

Question for Champis,
Do you know if you are using SE classic or SE foundation series? When I spoke with the GTAC folks they weren't sure but thought that it was because I am using the foundation series (apparently stripped down). If so I can't understand why the PMI menu should even be present. Further, there is no mention of it being an option in the online help.

I could not find any mention of it either in the help file.
The PMI Command Toolbar
The Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) workflow commands are grouped together on a convenient PMI toolbar, which you can access by selecting View?Toolbars?PMI in the Assembly, Part, and Sheet Metal environments, or by right-clicking on the main toolbar and selecting PMI.
