Hi All,
I've a question about the use of attribute filters that I was hoping you could help me with.
We initially discovered this in@ Catia WGM (10.2), but the result seems to be consistent throughout our Windchill set up.
In the default Golf Cart Product, I want to create a context containing all parts including the word "AXLE" in the name.
I know from a search that there are 10 Occurrences in the assembly, and want to create a context containing these parts and their parents up to the Golf Cart level.:
When I apply an attribute search looking for *AXLE* however, no results are returned.
Initial feedback suggests that the word AXLE would need to appear in the part name at every level above the areas I'm interested in, right up to the immediate children of the Golf Cart level, or for the filter to give the results we expected. However, this does not seem to match how the user documentation explains that the the attribute filter works (unless it expects a completely flat tree structure).
A recursive search capability appears to be a very basic type of attribute filter requirement and I was hoping someone could suggest how I can best achieve this result.
- Are there preferences to allow recursive attribute filtering?
- Do I need to modify or extend the filter to achieve the result?
- Is this the best way to attempt this type of task?
- Is this a bug in our deployed code?
- etc.
Any advice would be gratefully received
Thanks
Richard
