  • How to obtain a representation on latest WTPart iteration if only WTPart (without associated CAD) is modified after CAD check-in
  • When creating a New Downstream View using MPMLink, the Creo View representation existing on the Design version is not automatically copied on the Downstream version
  • 3D model representation is not copied to the new WTPart iteration, but the 2D drawing representation is copied
    • Association relationships of EPMDocument with 3D model and 2D drawing are Owner and Contribute Content respectively
