Thumbnail color - drawing images
Background:
During check in, thumbnails are generated for both models and drawings, so far so good.
I use a mapkey to use only the custom check in routine with both models and viewable objects.
What I would like to control is how the thumbnail drawing images are generated. I don't have any issues with the model.
Issue:
When I use a blue background and check in, I get this in Windchill, both large and small thumbnails:
This is not so legible. It opens in Creo View like this also and is very difficult to read.
When I change to a white background:
This works and is legible in WC and Creo View.
So the question:
How do I configure the monochrome thumbnail creation without having users change or force to B/W background?
Thanks

Windchill License Types
Hi
I am looking at the different license types in Windchill.
Is there a type of license that allows someone to raise an issue within the tool without needing a full license?
While we have a limited set of users that will participate in the change process (review, design, release etc) we would like most people in the organization to be able to raise an issue with a document.
Thanks for this and please let me know the possible solutions.
Regards

Transmitted Data drill down view no live on Performance Advisor for PTC Windchill
The Transmitted Data gadget now provides a drill down view on the execution status of the reports sent to PTC.
Click the title on the TRANSMITTED DATA gadget or select Transmitted Data from the Go to page list on the dashboard to access the Transmitted Data page. The Transmitted Data table shows details on the frequency, execution time and status of the reports. The Details section will provide insight in the event there are failures or warnings which require further action. Follow this link to learn more.
Note: Execution time and Frequency are additions introduced in Windchill 11.0 M010, so systems running on earlier releases will report N/A for these two attributes.

Custom AutoCAD worker
Hi All,
I am configuring the Custom CAD Worker following the PTC article ( https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS40919). As mentioned in the article, I have to create a command line utility or script that can take an AutoCAD DWG file as an input and create PDF as Output.
Did anyone has configured this setup in your environment? Please share the steps to configure the utility or Script. There are third party tools for conversion but I don't want to use them.
Thanks,

Plugin Issue...does anyone have a working configuration?
We have been struggling, as most of you have with the disabling of the NPAPI in the the browsers. My question is, does anyone have a working configuration, ie. Creo 2, Windchill 10.2, Chrome, etc. Adding files to Windchill manually is becoming a nightmare. Any help is appreciated.

Is Windchill flakey?
So I was working on a project using Creo 2.0 connected to Windchill 10.2 when all the sudden there is a problem with check-in of my part. I try to investigate - I click on the red stop sign on the status bar to examine the event manager - up comes a blank window.
I try the "workspace" link - up pops up an error message with a Status Code 501 - no access to this object or object does not exist. Uh oh, that 2nd part doesn't sound too good.
I check in a stand-alone browser - things don't look good: many of my workspaces have disappeared: they are no longer listed on the "My Workspaces" section in my home page.
There are still links to these objects in the "Recently Visited" lists, but attempting to view them throws the same Code 501 message.
I ask other users if they are having issues - nope.
Logging in as the wcadmin, I can see that the workspaces for my regular user are still there. But from there, the only thing a wcadmin can do with them is to delete them...
So, looking at the methodserver logs, I see ERRORS all over the place saying my regular user doesn't have permissions to access the context(s)... What the heck? No one was messing with access rights, all users still belong to the same groups that have the correct permissions... It's a total mystery to me why I am all the sudden locked out of some product contexts.
So I get PTC tech support and they recommend I go and grant my user access to these contexts through the policy administration tool. Well, after giving my user the Read rights to some PDMLink object of a particular context, "My Workspaces" section is now fuller. But when I try to access the common-space folders of this context, the same 501 error comes up. So the tech support say we need to add more Policies that grant my user read access for the Cabinet type of an object... I am starting to panic because this solution doesn't seem to be getting at the root of the problem - am I going to have to patch the policies for every context I was involved in before?
So I ask - can we try to reboot the server first?
And after doing so, the problem goes away.
Well, there is another thing - I used to have bookmarks in the "Hot Links" of the "My Notebook" section in my homepage. Now they're gone.
So questions to you Windchill gurus:
- has anyone seen this kind of flakiness before?
- does Windchill automatically get rid of the bookmarks that point to contexts to which you don't have access?
- the server has been up for 17 days before restarting it today. Is this too long of a time? We do have a daily backup going - but I wonder if the windchill server should be shut down during the backup process and then restarted after the vaults are backed up...

Need a custom BOM Query
Hi PDM Gurus,
I need to make an enhanced BOM Query in Windchill 10.1 M040. If the data comes out in a reasonable way a query using the QueryBuilder tool (under Org or Site/Utilities/Report Management) would be enough; I'd rather not try to dive into Cognos if I don't have to, but I don't quite know what links to put where, what objects to put in the From tab, what Joins etc...need some help on this.
REQUIRED INPUT: A parent part number and revision selector (with the default option selecting Latest)
NICE TO HAVE INPUT: The ability to put in multiple part numbers and it would do all of them at once
OPTIONAL INPUT: Toggle selectors on several of the part Attributes to turn on or off if they show in the data, like Name, Description, Context, some custom Global ones we've added, etc...
OUTPUT:
A full multi-level BOM printout of the parent(s) selected showing their layers. The requested parent is level 0, a first-level child would be level 1, a child of that would be level 2 and it would break out that object's BOM in full before moving on to the next level 1 child, etc...and the data columns displayed for each entry would be the part number, quantity and the list of toggle-selected attributes.
Does anyone have any idea on how I can do this? I've tried making one with Joins between Part, Parts List, etc...it doesn't come out properly.
Please advise,
Daryl

Windchill cold backup & restore - disaster recovery
As we prepare to deploy Windchill Intralink 9.1, I need to come up with a strategy for disaster recovery.
Can you share how you do it?
Currently, we have Intralink 3.4 on a UNIX server, and it is simple to backup and restore everything.
It's all in one folder structure.
We back it up nightly (cold) and can restore by simply copying all files back to their original locations.
PTC's documentation implies that Windchill backup & restore is basically as simple.
However, this is now under Windows, where backup & restore is usually more complicated.
I suspect that there will be more involved, including Windows services & registry entries.
Any advice is appreciated.

Anyone setup PTC Navigate on Thingworx yet?
I have it 90% setup I think. When I activate the single sign on it bounces to my windchill server to login in. It then bounces back to my Thingworx server but I get an error. Error is to many redirects. I thought this might just be a browser issue but I have tried all the tricks for fixes I found on line. As you can guess they did not work. Any help would be great. FYI it does kind of work if I don't turn on single sign on. Although I my search results are hit and miss. I am on Windchill 10.2 M020.
