Create graphics for multiple resources

Procedure

  1. With search results displayed in the Table view, select all instances in the table for which you want to create graphics.

  2. Click at the bottom of the Table view.

    Teamcenter displays the Create Graphics for Selected ICOs dialog box. If no part family template (PFT) is defined for one of the instances listed, that line is highlighted in red. If there are multiple PFTs assigned to a class, the background color is yellow. The default PFT is selected. If you want to use a different PFT for the selected ICOs listed in the dialog box, click the down arrow beside the name of the PFT and select a different PFT. Note This PFT is used to generate graphics for all instances listed in the Create Graphics for Selected ICOs dialog box. If you want to use different PFTs to generate graphics for ICOs in the same class, you must select the ICOs accordingly in the Table view.

  3. (Optional) Select Create part file and Create JT file.

  4. Click Create/Update. Teamcenter opens the Create Graphics Progress Results dialog box listing each ICO and the status of the graphics creation. At the bottom of the dialog box, Teamcenter provides an explanation for each failed generation attempt.
