Replace a 2D snapshot

When you are working with multiple item revisions and the selected 2D snapshot is based on an item revision older than the one you currently have open, you can replace the selected 2D snapshot with a new one, and the old 2D snapshot remains associated with the old item revision.

Procedure

  1. With the snapshot that you want to replace open in the 2D viewer, and a newer item revision than the one associated with the selected snapshot open, right-click the snapshot in the Snapshot Gallery dialog box and choose Replace.Teamcenter associates the newly created snapshot with the currently open item revision, leaving the original snapshot associated with the original item revision.

  2. (Optional) Define attributes for the 2D snapshot. Note Teamcenter opens the Attributes dialog box automatically each time you create a 2D snapshot when you choose Options→Show Attributes Form on Add.
