Designating application domains for diagram templates

Each diagram template designates a Teamcenter application domain for the diagrams based on that template. By default, two domains are available, both for the Systems Engineering application:

  • Diagrams based on templates designating the FunctionalModeling domain are fixed to the Function view.
  • Diagrams based on templates designating the LogicalModeling domain are fixed to the Logical Block view.

Note: In the Business Modeler IDE, you can add custom application domains for diagrams by adding the domain names to the Fnd0TcApplication list of values (LOV).

An application domain defines a context for accomplishing particular business tasks — for example, the Functional Modeling domain gives direction for the tools used in the Function view.

  • Diagram content is synchronized according to the underlying application domain.
  • Domain-specific context information is stored with the diagram object when content is saved in the diagram view.
  • When the diagram is opened, the context information is passed to the diagram owner to initiate the diagram view.
  • If the diagram information does not match the diagram owner's current structure, the diagram view content is updated to reflect the structure changes.

Caution: The related application must be running while the diagram is open.
